OKRA - BULLDOG / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Bulldog / Mixed (short coat). **Okra received her Freedom Flight ticket to NJ and is available for adoption at the Tractor Supply in Ringoes, NJ over the Sept 6-7 weekend. An application for her adoption can be submitted at socorescue (no need to register or login). Questions about Okra and/or our adoption policy should be sent to socorescue8gmail; please do not call the rescue's number.*** Okra and her littermates came to our rescue as owner surrenders at the young age of just 5 weeks old. Her former owner had agreed to foster the litter of pups until space became available at SoCo, but that all changed in an instant when Scott Bennett went to administer the first round of de-wormer. The manner in which the pups were being kept was very unsanitary and had already began to take its toll on the litter, so Scott had the owner surrender the pups to him. They are thriving at SoCo Rescue after receiving lots of TLC from the SoCo staff. Not only is Okra one of the sweetest pups we've met, she's also very calm and relaxed. She does love to engage in play with her littermates and is well-socialized towards people as well, making her a great candidate for those looking for a family dog. She'll do well in a home that could include other animals and children who know how ro properly handle a small dog. Okra has received her first round of "puppy" vaccinations, de-wormings and other care. She currently will need to receive additional vaccines and such, the next coming due on Sept 9th. She can be pre-adopted but not released to her new home until on or after Sept. 16th. Her adopter must agree to having Okra spay once she reaches 6 months old and providing the rescue with verification of such. Okra will require all of her basic training.
