Please contact Diane Pedulla ([email protected]) for more information about this pet.sweet small pup seeking new chapter! BANDICOOT NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:Bandicoot Best Guess for Breed: Chihuahua and terrier mix Best Guess for Age: 3 years as of August 2024 Gender: male Approximate Weight: 7 lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with kids or cats but he can be tested Currently Living At: Lucky Dog's South Carolina rescue campus. Needs a foster or forever home in the DC area after completing heartworm treatment! Special Adoption Considerations: Bandicoot is heartworm positive, but this Lucky Dog got extra lucky! This pup is part of a groundbreaking study we are conducting at our South Carolina Rescue Campus that has the potential to change the way shelters across the United States treat heartworm positive dogs. All dogs in the study are placed at random in either the 2 shot or 3 shot protocol with strictly monitored protocols in place. Four weeks following their final injection, the pups are eligible to transport to the DC area for placement in foster or adoptive care. After treatment concludes, we work with adopters to arrange a free follow up heartworm test after 6 months, followed by a second test at 9 months. We are happy to discuss this treatment and which phase of the study this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left! Bandicoot is Looking For: His forever home! This utterly adorable little pup landed in the shelter through no fault of his own. He's eager to once again have his own humans for sniffy walks and world exploration - and snuggles!He'd also like quality kibble and a cushy dog bed. But you know what he wants most of all? To know he's safe and loved and under hisown roof. In exchange, he promises adoring gazes and snuggles and loyal companionship. What do you say? Does Bandicoot have a spot in your lap and your life? What My Foster Says About Me: We will update this once he has arrived in the DC area and spent some time with his foster. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.
