RIZZO - LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 550. Rizzo is a charming lab/hound mix puppy born on November 27, one of 13 pups born to Mama Sandy and raised entirely in rescue. Thanks to a nurturing foster environment, Rizzo has grown into a confident, social, and affectionate little girl. Rizzo loves people and enjoys interaction, learning, and playtime. She’s a smart puppy with a gentle confidence and an eager-to-please attitude that will serve her well as she continues to grow. With consistent, positive training, Rizzo will make a wonderful family companion. Because she is still a young puppy with typical nippy behavior, Rizzo would do best in a home with kids ages 6 and older. We may consider families with younger children if there is an existing playful dog in the home who can help meet her social and play needs. Rizzo is looking for a family ready to enjoy the journey of raising a puppy and all the joy that comes with it. 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.
