Meet Nissan

NISSAN NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!   Come meet Nissan and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (June 30th) from 12-3 pm at the Petsmart in Falls Church (6100 Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22044)!     Name:  Nissan            Best Guess for Breed: Sheltie/Heeler Mix      Best Guess for Age:  3 months as of June 2024            SEX:  Male   Estimated Weight (puppies' weights change quickly!): 20lbs as of 6/19   Gets Along With:  Most puppies are in the prime of their socialization window and will do well with other dogs, cats and kids so long as they receive patience and proper training.   Currently Living at:  D.C. area foster home!   Special Adoption Considerations:  Puppies under 6 months of age need to have multiple potty breaks/exercise throughout the day. Potential adopters with a standard 8-hour workday must be willing to make arrangements to meet the needs of their puppy.  Nissan is Looking For: Hiya! I'm Nissan! Me and my littermates, Nubbs, Nadia, Natalie, Nolan, Nymbus, and Nicholas, have loved our time in the puppy pile, but we are each ready to pack our bags and find our very own forever home! I'm looking for a home that will let me play with toys and get my puppy zoomies out and give me snuggles in between playtimes. When I'm a little older, I can't wait to explore my new neighborhood on lots of walks, and I'd really like to make a bunch of doggie friends along the way. Oh, and I should probably take a puppy obedience class or two so I can show you how smart I am. What do you say? Do you have room in your heart for me? What My Foster Says About Me: Nissan is a bit of a mischievous little puppy with a twinkle in his eye and a spring in his step. He brings a playful chaos with his siblings and has boundless puppy energy and an adventurous spirit. His zest for life is infectious, and he often leads the other puppies into impromptu games and friendly tussles, making sure there's never a dull moment. Despite his mischievous ways, Nissan has a heart full of love and a wagging tail that never stops. His playful antics and endless enthusiasm make him the life of the party, bringing laughter to the house. Puppy Vetting Requirements:        Lucky Puppies have had their age appropriate vaccines, but may not yet be “fully” vaccinated. It is the adopter’s responsibility to ensure that the remaining puppy vaccines are given at the appropriate time. Please also keep in mind that, until your puppy is fully vaccinated, they are at greater risk for illness than an adult dog.    Due to this puppy’s young age, she/he has not yet been spayed or neutered.  As part of the adoption contract, it will be your responsibility, as the adopter, to ensure that this is done no later than September 21, 2024. There are NO EXCEPTIONS and NO EXTENSIONS to this date. A non-refundable spay/neuter deposit will be collected if you would like Lucky Dog to pay for this animal to be spayed/neutered at one of our low cost partner vets.   Your new puppy will need to work on their house training and will also need to go to obedience school so they can grow into a well-socialized dog!  TO ADOPT:       The adoption fee for this puppy is $485, which includes the cost of routine vetting and transport from the shelter.    If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life! Please visit us online at        www.luckydoganimalrescue.org       .
