MANNY OF TALLAHASSEE, FL - AMERICAN ESKIMO DOG (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: American Eskimo Dog (medium coat). Available for Adoption! Manny of Tallahassee, FL!! Manny is a sweet young boy who's looking for his forever home. He's about 2 years old and is a tall standard-sized eskie who currently weighs 29 pounds. We rescued him from a kill-shelter in central Florida where he was a stray. He was skin and bones at that time weighing only 20 pounds, but his foster mom is keeping him well-fed and he's now up to 29 pounds which we think is his ideal weight. His hip bones, backbone, and ribs are no longer so prominent and his coat is already thicker and fuller. Manny needs an Eskie-savvy adopter, and no children please. He's an excellent watch dog, and usually doesn't bark unless he has a reason to. But like most dogs, he will bark at strange dogs and other animals that he sees near his foster home. He's very affectionate, loves to give kisses, and get belly rubs. He does great with most dogs, loves riding in the car, he's house trained, and knows some obedience commands. Manny will need additional training to learn how to walk on a leash without pulling. He is very treat oriented and takes them gently, which should help make his training easier. He loves to play, and needs a home with someone who will play with him daily. A fenced yard is preferred, but not absolutely necessary. We don't yet know how he is with cats. And we don't know if he was ever crate trained or not. If you have any questions about Manny, please send an e-mail to: Cheryleskierescuers To submit an adoption application for Manny, please complete and submit our online Adoption Application. You'll find the link for it partway down this page on our website: .eskierescuers/info/display?PageID=21057 Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state. If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers. There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs. Eskie Rescuers United American Eskimo Dog Rescue, Inc. is an IRS-approved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
