Girlie

4/20/06: Great News! Pharoah Hound rescue has agreed to take Girlie and find her the type of home she requires and deserves. Thanks to all who emailed about her.
4/18/06: Alabama AKA "Girlie" is a Pharoah Hound whose owner is trying to find another home for because she feels Girlie is not getting the time and attention she soo deserves. The following is what the owner has to say about her baby:
She is 9 months old, and her official name is Alabama, but we just call her Girlie. She is a well mannered dog that just needs some love and affection. She is completely house trained and NEVER messes in the house. With some guidance she has learned to stay around the house when she goes outside, but she really loves to run, and jumps at the opportunity to go for a long walk. She does very well with children, and she loves to play fetch with a tennis ball. Girlie has learned to sit for a treat, and shake hands, and she obeys very obligingly. She has been kennel trained,and when I am not home she is in her kennel, but sleeps on her own bed at night. She is a bigger dog, weighing about 50 Lbs, and is also tall and slender in size. She is very low shedding and a Pharoah Hound simply needs a brushing once a week to stay clean and fresh. She loves to cuddle on the couch with me at the end of the day, and sleeps good at night. I have kept her up to date with all of her shots, and she takes heart worm and flea medication every month. I have another dog that she has been raised with and they get along great, as she does with any other dog she meets. She would make a great pet for a loving family especially if they are a bit on the active side :)
Since she hasn't been around cats, we would recommend that she not go to a home with cats because as a sight hound, she may be inclined to chase after them. She will be examined, spayed and heartworm tested prior to placement, she is current on her vaccines. Breeders NEED NOT APPLY, Girlie will be spayed PRIOR to adoption, NO EXCEPTIONS! Owners with Pharoah Hound experience recommended. To help defray veterinary costs, her adoption donation is $200. For more info, see our adoption policy below.
Please copy and paste a completed adoption application from our homepage with your inquiry. Priority will be given only to those inquiries that contain a completed application. We get dozens of emails and phone calls each day with only an hour of "free time" to volunteer and answer them around our full-time jobs and family life...don't let your inquiry get passed by because of an incomplete application.
Help our rescue by donating to our "Spay the momma fund". When adopting one of our babies, if each new family would contribute an extra $10 we can help out that babies mother by assisting with the cost of her spay. Help turn the momma into a pet rather than a breeding factory, donate today!
Adoptions limited to a 500 mile radius of Pulaski, NY and pets must be viewed in person prior to adoption; animals will not be shipped to their new homes. Veterinary reference check and adoption donation also required. Check out our homepage for a full list of our adoption requirements.
