TAMMY NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Tammy Best Guess for Breed: Lab, retriever mix Best Guess for Age: 2.5 years as of July 2024 SEX: Female Approximate Weight: 44 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! She hasn't been seen with kids or cats but can be tested Currently Living at: Georgia shelter Special adoption considerations: Tammy is a truly Lucky Dog! She tested positive for Heartworm disease but has already been treated and has fully recovered! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. We are happy to talk more in depth about heartworm disease and treatment during the adoption counseling process. All about Tammy: This sweetie ended up in a shelter through no fault of her own. She was selected to participate in a Prison Dogs program and did wonderfully - she's already obedience trained and ready for life in a home! Tammy graduated from the program and is now back in the shelter patiently awaiting her forever home. She is looking for a family that will return her unconditional love, take her on sniffy walks, romps in the park, and all the adventures they can dream up. Tammy is great with other dogs and people and would love to make new pup and people pals along the way! What the Shelter Staff Says About Me: Tammy is a sweet beauty who knows basic obedience since she's spent the past few months in a Prison Dog program. She has been great with the people and dogs she's met. We think she'd make a great addition to just about any family. 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.
