Description:

Polly #191213 is a 9-month old (as of late October) terrier/chihuahua mix, about 10 lbs. She is very sweet, loves attention and is a very active little gal! She came to us originally with NO hair at all so her coat has recovered wonderfully. Polly is a very high energy dog, loves to play with toys, loves attention, walks well on a leash. Like many of these dogs, she is quite the little monkey so a 6' privacy fence is likely best or apartment living with long leash walks. See below for how we got Polly: This precious dog is one of 74 we took in from a single voluntary surrender situation. These dogs have lived their lives outside in large pens so are NOT housetrained, not crate-trained, not leash trained. Many are super friendly, and we think will be fine with children but to our knowledge they have never been around children. It will be best for any children to meet them at our Shelter to make sure. Some of these dogs are shyer and may be more suited to adult only homes. These dogs were all fed well enough but were covered with fleas & lived on dirt, so many do have hair loss as a result. A few have some Demodectic Mange which is NOT a contagious condition; we expect those with Demodex to clear up quickly now that they are spayed and neutered, fully vaccinated, flea free and clean. Going to a home full of love will also help immensely as they leave the stress behind of their previous living conditions and also the Shelter. All those up for adoption have tested negative for heartworms but it is absolutely vital they be kept on monthly heartworm prevention from your Veterinarian to ensure they stay negative. If you are not familiar with heartworm prevention, please first talk to your Veterinarian so you are aware of the cost (minor considering that it saves lives) and are ready to ensure prevention throughout their lifetime. If you have other dogs and they are not on prevention you will first need to get with your Veterinarian to have your dog(s) tested and purchase prevention for it/them. Heartworm prevention is a BIG DEAL to us and while we are happy to educate, please also talk to your Veterinarian about its importance. We look forward to all of these dogs being adopted into loving and responsible homes where they will get lots of attention, love and care, and never again have to be miserable from fleas and all of the inclement weather they have endured living outside. Our adoption fees are $100 for dogs. This adoption fee completely covers the mandatory spay or neuter, basic immunizations, de-worming, microchip, heartworm check, rabies vaccination if old enough, free health exam with your participating veterinarian.
