Nutmeg

Apply here: http://athenscaninerescue.com/adoption-procedures/ Welcome back, Nutmeg! You may recognize this pretty girl as one of the puppies from Winnie’s litter this past Christmas season. She’s growing up quickly and is just as gorgeous as her Mom. She currently weighs in at 45 pounds at around 7 months, but will likely top out around 65 pounds. Housebreaking, Crate-Training, and Commands Nutmeg is both crate AND house-trained! She does great on a schedule and keeps her crate clean at night. She does need a little bribe (like a treat!) to go in her crate, but otherwise, she does so well and is such a good girl. Behavior around other Dogs, Cats, and Kids Nutmeg has done great with cats, dogs, and children! She’s a little nervous with both cats and dogs, but is friendly and happy to interact once she warms up. She is also good with her human foster siblings, but because she’s always SO excited, she’d likely do better with older children until she learns to keep all four paws on the floor! Behavior around People Nutmeg LOVES people! She’s so sweet and will happily snuggle anyone who will let her. Exercise Needs With a gait like a baby deer, watching Nutmeg run around is such a fun treat! She’s got the typical puppy energy, but just about any exercise regimen is enough to tucker her out and let her snuggle right up to you. Those hazel eyes had us swooning at first sight! In love? Contact us today! If you’d like to be considered to adopt, the first step in the process is to submit an application through our website: http://athenscaninerescue.com/adoption-procedures/. Our adoption fee is $250 per dog over the age of 6 months and $300 per dog 6 months or younger. We accept payment by Venmo, PayPal, or card. This includes: basic vet care (i.e. basic vaccinations, including boosters completed after adoption, spay/neuter, heartworm/flea preventatives, and treatment for any health needs while in our care), a microchip, a week’s worth of food for the trial-period, and a harness lead. All in state applications will be considered with some preference given to more local applications. WE ARE NOT ACCEPTING OUT OF STATE APPLICATIONS FOR DOGS SIX MONTHS OR YOUNGER. We do not have a facility and operate through a network of foster homes. Thus, we do not have a phone number. If you’d like to discuss potential adoptions, please email at [email protected].
