PERMANENT Old Dog Haven FOSTER HOME NEEDED:
(foster homes must be located in W. Washington state or Portland, OR only)
"Kona" is a 58 pound Chocolate Lab mix- perhaps a German shorthaired
pointer?? Because she was a "stray", her true age is unknown, but she is most definitely a senior dog who has just been spayed.
What a pretty girl and what a sweetheart - you can see that her eyes are usually focused on a human. She is energetic, strong, just figuring out how to deal with
other big dogs she sees out on walks, wonderful in the house. It took
her a while to relax in her temporary foster home. No doubt she didn't understand what had happened and whether these people would also abandon her - but as that worry receded, she settled in.
Kona arrived with skin issues (from fleas?) which have mostly resolved now.
She is recovered from her spay surgery and ready to become part of a
home that will keep working on her leash skills so that she can keep
enjoying regular exercise as she increases her confidence.
It is unknown how she will do with other dogs in the house because her shelter foster has no other dogs. However, we have no reason to think it would be a problem. Whether or not she can live with cats is also unknown.
Kona is definitely a lover, a devoted companion who will respond to the effort you make for her. If you are interested, please let us know.
Old Dog Haven would like to bring Kona into our care. To do so, we need to find a home to send her to. Old Dog Haven pays ALL medical bills for life. You will not be adopting Kona, you will be offering her a home to stay in for the rest of her life under our rescue. If you are interested, you can apply to forever foster Kona.
