Libby is an approx. 7-8yo, 24lb. beagle mix. This super sweet girl is very calm but still enjoys playing with other dogs. She is great with kids, cats, dogs and even chickens. She rides great in the car. She likes to sleep in an open crate during the day, and sleeps in it at night on her own, sleeping quietly through the night. She is almost house trained, but for now she needs to sleep in a crate or she will pee inside the house during the night or early am. She had an accident the first day and but has been great since. She will follow you from room to room and started sleeping with her fur siblings in their beds with them after about a week. Libby walks well on a leash but would love a fenced backyard to sniff and lay in the sun. She enjoys having doggy siblings, and will follow her foster friends around the yard. She is a low shedder.

She is mostly quiet but will bark occasionally when she gets excited, like dinner time, going for a walk, or presented with a Kong toy (her favorite thing is peanut butter inside the Kong). When Libby arrived to us, she had severe dental disease. She has had two dental surgeries with extractions while with our rescue; after the last dental it was found with CT scan that she has a small root fragment where one tooth used to be, but was not one of the teeth removed by our vet. So once she is adopted, her adopter will need to see a dental specialist to have that taken care of. She also still needs a couple extractions. Libby also had a mammary mass removed with our rescue. The mass was determined to be a lower grade malignant adenocarcinoma. The vet was able to get the entire mass and there is no evidence of metastasis, which chest x-rays indicate no spread. Libby is heartworm positive at this time, and is on the slow kill protocol, which we can explain that process to any interested applicant. She can enjoy regular activities. Heart worm disease is contracted from an infected mosquito and can not be transmitted to another dog. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Libby, please complete an application and tell us more about your family.
