Cowboy

Breed: Beagle, Terrier Mix / Adoption fee is $150 / Sex: Male / Age: Approximately 6 years old / Weight: Approx. 35-42 pounds

Hi. My name is Cowboy, I am about six years old and I weigh almost forty pounds. I was surrendered to the rescue when my family was moving away and said they couldn't take me with them. I just don't understand that and was very confused at first. Now, I am over them and ready to move on with my life.

I am a social boy, playful and loyal to my family. I talk a lot if someone comes around I don't know and I can sound quite fierce, despite my petite size. Actually I am a big chicken and will stand behind you or run to my crate, please don't tell anyone. I love toys, lots of them. I have always lived in a home with a fenced yard. I went to training classes and know all my basic obedience and how to walk with a harness on a leash. I like walks. I came to the rescue with two problems we have been working on, first I love food and treats. I should only weigh almost fourty pounds but it's hard for me to hold that weight because I will eat anything you give me! So they are watching how much food I eat and I am trying to get more exercise, did I say I love food and treats?

I have been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated (including influenza) and tested negative for heartworms. I tested positive for a tick borne illness after intake but the vet took care of me and it's no longer a concern but will cause me to test positive still (no treatment needed).

My adoption fee is 150.00. If you are interested in adopting me please fill out an adoption application for me, Cowboy. I could protect you and be your friend if you can do the same for me.

Quick View:

House Manners: Housebroken and knows doggie door.

Basic Training: Knows basic obedience just will need time to connect with new owners.

Other Dogs: I can handle dogs of all sizes large or small. I am playful with other dogs, but will also respect their space if they ask.

Cats: I was in the dog trainers home with cats and done very well with indoor cats, both the type that interacted with me and the fuzzy one wanted to attack me.

Kids: We do not foresee any issues with well mannered kids being around Cowboy

Fencing: Not a known escape artist. Respect 5 ft fence.

Important PLEASE read if interested in adoption:

We have a pretty open adoption policy, apartments, unfenced yards, and young kids are okay, but only if the pet you are interested in is a good fit for that situation!!! Some dogs may require a fence of a certain type and height, due to safety, the breed or known history. We are looking for pet parents that provide vet care such as routine vaccines for their pets and heartworm prevention for dogs. Please understand we do cross check vet references and landowners/landlord policies and cannot process applications with incomplete or incorrect information.

We asked that you take your newly adopted dog for a vet exam in the first 30 days to establish with your vet and obtain their heartworm prevention prescriptions and have a fecal exam administered as some pets may need additional de-womer after leaving our care.
