ASTREA - HOUND / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Hound / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Astrea is a 5-month-old hound/lab mix who weighs about 25 lbs. She’s already showing just how smart and loving she is, and she’s ready to find her forever home. Astrea is potty trained and uses bells tied to the door to let you know when it’s time to go out—how clever is that? She’s mostly crate trained (a treat for encouragement never hurts!) and sleeps peacefully through the night. She already knows the “sit” command, and she’s working on “stay”—she’s great at it indoors but still learning that outside is just as important. Astrea has a playful, social side too—she loves the company of other dogs and would be thrilled to have a canine buddy to romp around with. She’s been wonderful with her foster’s 12-year-old granddaughter. As for younger children, we haven’t had the chance to test yet. This girl is a bundle of energy, joy, and affection, ready to bring fun and love into your life. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s eager to learn and loves to play, Astrea may be the perfect match! Ready to meet this sweetheart? Fill out an adoption application and come see why everyone who meets Astrea falls in love. If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: .starfishanimalrescue/adopt/dog-adoption-application . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $450 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
