TEDAH - COLLIE / GERMAN SHEPHERD DOG / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Collie / German Shepherd Dog / Mixed (long coat). Adoption Fee: 300. *This animal is a part of our “Seniors for Seniors” program where we offer senior adopters an opportunity to adopt an eligible pet at a discounted fee.* Prepare to fall in love! Tedah is perhaps the sweetest dog we've ever met, a truly special senior lady seeking a soft, quiet landing after bravely raising her puppies on the streets. Every person who meets Tedah instantly adores her gentle, kind spirit. Her tail wags in joyous circles when she’s happy! Tedah is a dainty, dignified, and soulful lady. Her recent struggles mean she cherishes rest, often found napping on a sheepskin by the fireplace. She enjoys quiet mornings exploring the yard and soaking up the sun. At night, Tedah is a perfect houseguest, preferring a cozy dog bed or even your bed – no crate needed. She loves being near you but doesn't demand attention, simply content to be in the room where things happen. Tedah adores gentle petting and will sweetly nudge you to continue if you stop too soon. While she's past the playful puppy stage, she occasionally enjoys a bone. Tedah needs an adopter with patience and a peaceful home, ready to offer her quiet guidance and all the love she deserves. This sweet girl has untold stories, and we promise she'll fill your life with warmth and gentle affection. She would do best as the only dog in the home. Adopting a senior dog is like getting a vintage car – it comes with character, a few extra quirks, and might need a bit more maintenance. Expect occasional tune ups at the vet for oil changes (aka meds), and embrace the fact that those 'normal lumps and bumps' are just part of the well-earned charm package! Ruff Start will share all known health information with adopters and rec ommendations to keep your senior dog in top shape. Tedah is from a local impound. If you are interested in getting to know this animal better, please fill out an adoption application. An adoption application is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is not a binding contract.

If you are unable to adopt but want to help this animal and others in our care, you can donate to support the medical and veterinary needs of all Ruff Start Rescue animals.
