My Story

Posted on 10/13/23, and the pictures were taken on 10/13/23.  Amris and her family of 3 other dogs were first spotted on our trail camera in June 2023 starving and looking for food.  Amris was the second to get trapped in our live trap.  I had to carry her from the live trap all the way to a kennel for the rest of the night, but now she walks good on a leash.  She does have a hunting instinct to go after night time wildlife, and has wanted to go after a feral cat we have.  She did climb over our 4 foot fence about 3 times, but is now staying inside the fence.  She's not very active now, lays around a lot, and rolls over frequently to receive belly rubs as I walk by.  We don't know if she is house trained, but she is crate trained.  She does not have a micro-chip, and no owner was found.  She was heartworm positive, is on prevention, and had heartworm treatment on 10/26/23 and 10/27/23.  She was estimated to be 6 years old on 8/8/23 weighing 63.6 pounds, and she was spayed on 9/24/23 weighing 68 pounds. On 11/15/23, she had an x-ray done that shows her back left leg has an ACL tear.  She was given Carprofen for several days.  The ACL surgery would cost around $6,000, so the veterinarian said she could have Rimadyl when needed, and try not to be too active, which she is not.  She loves to be pet, and would make a great companion for someone who is not too active. $70 adoption fee.
