Description

Name: Petey Sex: Male Estimated Age: About 8 years old Best Guess for Breed: Terrier Mix Weight: About 55 lbs Lives With: Dogs and people! Housebroken? Yes, Petey is potty trained and crate trained. Rescued from: North Carolina Story: Petey is a super sweet boy who would make a great addition to your home! He knows sit, stay, shake, and we’re working on down! He’s crate trained and house trained and loves sunbathing in the backyard. He does well with people, kids, dogs (with proper intro), and appears to do well with cats. He’s already been camping, to the beach, and to a brewery, and did great in all those situations. He didn't like the ocean but takes baths like a champ. He loves to observe and smell, but with the right setup/support he is able to calm down and settle. We’re working with him on walking manners and he’s doing great with a harness though is strong/likes smelling everything. He loves peanut butter and takes his pills like a champ (he’s being treated for heartworm). He loves cuddling on the couch at the end of a long day, too! The fee to adopt Petey is $350. That covers the cost of all his vaccines, his neuter, the collar he’s wearing, his transport to DC and his care in his foster home. He’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines. Petey has been seen by a shelter vet and has completed treatment for Heartworm. Heartworm is a very treatable illness that is common in many shelter dogs coming from the South.
