FIONA - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (medium coat). Adoption Fee: 550. Meet Fiona, a Lab/aussie mix born around July 10th. Fiona and her littermates came to us after her mom rejected her litter. After ample TLC, she is now ready to find her furever home. Fiona is a confident go-getter. She is the first to topple over her siblings, get rowdy and then blink her eyes slowly pretending to be innocent! Fiona is everything puppy and will need a patient owner willing to dedicate time, structure and consistency so she can flourish. She has been socialized with kids, dogs and cats and has done well with all. She currently sleeps in a pen with her siblings and is doing great using pee pads. During the day and during outdoor play time, she will happily go potty outside. She is working in the right direction with potty training, but has a ways to go. She is in her mouthy era and will need patience as she outgrows her teething. She is redirected easily with toys to help minimize her teething. If you think Fiona would be a good fit for your family, please submit an application! She will do best in homes with kids 8 and older and an active family who can spend much of the day with her. 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 $550 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.
