Dakota has been adopted! 05-12-2008

Dakota came to us through a high kill animal shelter. Her card said "owner surrender", but when we inquired as to the reason, we were told that her owner had died. What a sad story! Poor Dakota lost her owner, then no one came to take care of her and she was unceremoniously dumped at a shelter where HER life was now in danger. Dakota is only about 18 months old, but is a very tall girl. She is housetrained and crates very easily. Although a bit shy at first, she was already beginning to bond with the volunteer who drove her away from the shelter. She appears to like other dogs.

Oh, did we mention that Dakota LOVES kids? The shelter workers report that when meeting a family with a child in a stroller, Dakota would not leave the child's side and was almost continuously giving kisses. Dakota would make a wonderful addition to any family.

We are asking a $500.00 donation for Dakota's adoption.

The minimum adoption donation for adults is $375 and the adoption donation for puppies is $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is tax deductible when permitted by law. The adoption donation provides that all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis ( i.e., puppies who will need to be altered by 6 mos old). Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems.
