DOTTIE - NO MORE APPLICATIONS PLEASE! - POODLE (MINIATURE) / SCHNAUZER / MIXED (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Poodle (Miniature) / Schnauzer / Mixed (medium coat). Dottie is with our rescue partner in Louisiana and will be landing in a NJ foster home on 1/10. Dottie is a true velcro dog who loves staying close to her people. She does not wander far when outside and is happiest curled up as a lap dog or quietly following you from room to room. Her kennel is her safe space and she settles there comfortably when her foster leaves the house or when it is time for bed. She would benefit from having another dog in the home to help show her the ropes and build confidence. Dottie can be vocal when she sees strangers or kids running by, but this comes from uncertainty, not aggression. She does not have an aggressive bone in her body and is simply a bit skittish as she experiences many new things for the first time. Dottie appears to be a Schnauzer Poodle mix. She is about six years old and recently had a dental, so she is feeling great and ready to start her next chapter. If you are looking for a loyal, gentle companion who wants nothing more than to be by your side, Dottie may be the perfect fit. Dottie is up to date on vaccines and tested negative for heartworm. Dottie has been spayed/neutered and has a microchip. Her adoption fee is $450. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through, they deserve a loving, committed home. CLICK HERE TO FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION!
