GRETCHEN 2025 - POINTER / DALMATIAN / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Pointer / Dalmatian / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 350.. Stunning GRETCHEN is a young dog looking for a life filled with fun, adventure and affection. She's a 1ish year old mixed breed girl who was dumped in a wooded area along a busy road. Luckily for Gretchen she ran out of the woods only to meet up with a couple of rescue volunteers. She came right to us, sweet and friendly and waaaay too skinny. Our wonderful vets at Clough Pike Veterinary Clinic took Gretchen under their wing and with good nutrition and proper care she gained 8 pounds in 2 weeks. She's now 50 pounds, a perfect weight, fully vetted and ready for love. Gretchen appears to be a Pointer mix, maybe with a little Dalmatian in the mix? She has the personality and temperament of a pointer. Gretchen is good natured, friendly and whip smart. She already knows sit and shake and loves to play fetch. She's good with young playful dogs and fine with cats. She needs a home with a physically-fenced yard suitable for running and romping. If you'd like to meet Gretchen, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Gretchen at our weekly adoption event, Saturday noon-2 at PetSmart Eastgate. All of our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.
