AstridObviously, Astrid recovered and was adopted by someone who never bothered to changer her chip information. A few weeks ago, she was picked up by animal control as a stray. Her microchip was still registered to the original woman. This woman was surprised to hear that her puppy was still alive 2 years later. She wouldn't adopt her, supposedly, because she now has other dogs in her home so yet again, she left her to an uncertain fate in a high kill shelter.
Astrid is like a kitty cat because she is proving to have multiple lives!!!! When we heard about her and saw her beautiful face and soft forgiving brown eyes, we were moved to help her. Another strike against her is that any responsible breeder would have removed her surplus toes at birth - now she has fused bone and its not in the cards to get that foot to look normal. Its not a problem because her extra toes don't bother her in the least.
Astrid is compact - she is muscular but not too tall. She has learned to be confident and strong - she'll do fine as an only dog or in a home with less dominant males or females. She adores her human relationships!

The minimum adoption donation ranges from $350 to $500. This amount only partially covers the cost of veterinary care, boarding fees, and other miscellaneous expenses involved in the temporary care and adoption of our dogs and is 100% tax deductible. Prior to placement, all dogs will be spayed or neutered, receive current vaccinations, and are usually microchipped. If not, arrangements will be made on an individual basis. Special consideration may be given to those willing to adopt older dogs or dogs with physical problems. Donate today using PayPal! Help us save dogs!
