DOT - TERRIER / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Mixed. Dot says “15 who?” We think you meant 5. Dot is still spry, present, and fully part of the pack. Don’t let the number fool you. This girl is not done living. She’s engaged, social, and clearly enjoying her days. Dot was seized as part of a cruelty case after she and her friend Lola were found abandoned in a home, left to fend for themselves for weeks in unsafe conditions surrounded by trash, feces, and urine. What she endured is heartbreaking. What’s remarkable is who she still is despite it. Dot is a true testament to resilience, strength, and an unshakable will to live. She does well with dogs of all ages and sizes and is also good with cats. Prior to being abandoned, Dot lived with children of various ages and handled that environment well. Now it’s her turn to be cherished. Dot is looking for a home where she can keep rocking her golden years, surrounded by comfort, kindness, and people who see her not as “old,” but as exactly who she is. A good dog with plenty of life left to enjoy. This dog is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (Please note: Puppies under 3 months old may not be sterilized prior to adoption. If this is the case, your adoption coordinator will provide guidance on the process.) To adopt or learn more about this dog, you must complete an adoption application, which can be found on our website: .sandypawsrescue. PLEASE READ: • If a dog or puppy is listed, they are currently available for adoption. However, they may already be pending an adoption, and their profile may not yet reflect this. • All information is accurate to the best of our knowledge as of the posting date. • Unless explicitly stated, Sandy Paws Rescue does not guarantee the breed of any dog. Breeds listed are educated guesses made by shelter staff, volunteers, or veterinarians. Many of our dogs are mixed breeds, often with pit bull-type genetics, resulting in a wide variety of physical traits and temperaments. Our dogs come from various situations, such as kill shelters, owner surrenders, or as strays. It is likely both parents were mixed breeds as well. Sandy Paws Rescue does not have a public shelter in Massachusetts. Our dogs reside in private foster homes or boarding kennels in the South until adopted. Many dogs are spoken for prior to transport or release from state-mandated isolation. For information on adoption fees, procedures, or FAQs, visit our website: .sandypawsrescue. The FIRST step in adopting from Sandy Paws Rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
