Princess has been adopted! 12-07-2008
Notes from a shelter scout: She just LOVED being able to run. She's too excited and maybe a bit aloof to jump in your lap at this point, but she did respond after a little time to us. She's very well fed, good sized and has a really nice, soft coat. I touched her everywhere, hugged her, kissed her .. she was great. I really like her. Needs some leash manners. Very strong.
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.
Denise and I took her out to the visiting area. She didn't even pay attention to the other dogs barking at her while we walked through the shelter. As soon as she got off leash in the enclosed area she just started running and running ... poor thing has been cooped up in a run for a while.
