Abby
up for adoption end of November. She will need to be the only pet
in the home.

Note:
Only good
homes with fenced in back yards will be considered with our retiring
dogs. Spay neuter is required in most cases, especially
females. A healthy GSD at a ripe old age lives on average to
12-15 years. Older dogs are ideal for people who do not want
to go through the hyper-active adolescence stage that can last
up to 2-3 years of age. Chewing, digging and jumping is greatly
reduced in older dogs.
Please note that dogs over 7 only need their
rabies shots. Parvo and distemper booster shots will most likely
just break down their immune system. Do a titer
test instead. If you are needing to board your dog at any time
and need proof of shots for boarding, do a titer test for proof
of your dog's immunities to parvo/distemper. If they will not accept
this documentation find another boarding facility. This is a very
serious issue for the health of your dog so don't let a boarding
facility or Shot happy Vet, ruin your dogs health because of uneducated
and outdated policies. |
