FOSTER or ADOPT SANDY !!

Foster Program:  Foster homes provide for the temporary care of a rescue until the dog is placed into a loving, forever home.   For more information on becoming a foster parent, and our Foster Program, visit http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/?page_id=64.         

Sponsor a Dog!   Sponsors help us provide additional medical treatment beyond basic vetting, and helps offset boarding costs when our foster homes are full.    K-9 Lifesavers treats dogs with heartworm, parvo, upper respiratory infections, and special surgical procedures.  Our adoption fees do not fully cover the additional vetting costs for these illnesses, and/or boarding.   For more information on our Sponsor Program, visit:  http://www.k-9lifesavers.org/?page_id=58.

Approximate Age: 7 weeks(10/30/12)

Approximate Weight: approx. 35-45lbs full grown 

Currently Living at: Boarding  Foster Puppy Sandy  until she is adopted! 

Hurricane Sandy...can be quite deceiving...you may think she could cause devestation like her namesake but she's a lover...not  a trouble maker.  She's sweeet and curious about this big world around us but is happy to spend time with her human and puppy friends.  She along with her siblings Katrina, Andrew, Floyd, Hugo, and Isaac are all terrific little pups. Mom is a beautiful beagle with a great big heart.

New Jersey and New York might not like Hurricane Sandy but she will be happy no matter when she lands.  Care to open your home and heart to her???

Before adopting a puppy, please assess the amount of time you have to provide your puppy with proper house-training, crate-training, obedience training, and most of all, frequent potty breaks.    K-9 Lifesavers recommends all new adopters enroll their new puppy into group obedience to ensure the puppy is well socialized and properly trained.           

The adoption fee for this puppy is $350, which includes basic vetting, age appropriate shots, treatment for worms, spay/neuter surgery at one of our partner vets, flea/tick treatment, and transport fees.   If interested in adopting, please download and complete an Adoption Application and email to us at kateobarr@gmail.com
