Meet Brownie

BROWNIE NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:   Brownie        Best Guess for Breed:  Lab mix   Best Guess for Age:    5 years as of February 2023       SEX:  Female   Approximate Weight:  49 lbs as of 3/28/23   Gets Along With:   Other dogs! We haven't seen her with kids or cats but she can be tested. She should NOT go to a home with chickens.    Currently Living at:    South Carolina shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area after completing heartworm treatment.   Special adoption considerations: Brownie tested positive for heartworm disease and has been treated on 3/27. Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, most dogs that were heartworm positive often suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative.  Most heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to talk more in depth about heartworm disease and treatment during the screening process. Retesting is recommended between 9-12 months after treatment to confirm they are heartworm negative.    Brownie is Looking For:  The good life with her forever family! Brownie did a great job raising her babies (Bali, Barbados, Belgium, Brussels, Berlin, and Boca) to be awesome family pets. Now that they're all grown up and ready to find their forever homes, she too is looking for her forever home. Her momma duties may be over but she still has a whole lot of love to give to her new human family. She can't wait for long walks, cozy beds, maybe even obedience school so she can show off how smart she is! What do you say? Is there a spot in your home and your heart for Brownie?   What My Foster Says About Me:    We will update this once she has arrived in the DC area and spent some time with her foster.   Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:    The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog.   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption.
