Turks

Please contact Chandler Jaffe ([email protected]) for more information about this pet.TURKS NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Turks Best Guess for Breed: Collie/shepherd mix Best Guess for Age: 2 years as of July 2024 Gender: Female Approximate Weight: 40lbs as of July 2024 Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen Turks with cats or kids, but she can be tested! Currently Living At: South Carolina shelter; needs a forever home in the DC area! Special Adoption Considerations: Turks is heartworm positive, but this Lucky Dog got extra lucky! This pup is part of a groundbreaking study we are conducting at our South Carolina Rescue Campus that has the potential to change the way shelters across the United States treat heartworm positive dogs. All dogs in the study are placed at random in either the 2 shot or 3 shot protocol with strictly monitored protocols in place. Four weeks following their final injection, the pups are eligible to transport to the DC area for placement in foster or adoptive care. After treatment concludes, we work with adopters to arrange a free follow up heartworm test after 6 months, followed by a second test at 9 months. We are happy to discuss this treatment and which phase of the study this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Turks is Looking For: Her forever home! This sweet girl needs a new home through no fault of her own. She's eager to once again have her own humans. Long sniffy walks and world exploration with them is on her wish list, as are a cushy dog bed and quality kibble. But you know what's right at the top of the list? Being safe and loved and under her own roof for all his days. What My Foster Says About Me: Coming soon! Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.
