DESCRIPTION
Fiona is 12 1/2 years old but you wouldn’t know it by how spunky she still is! She’s great with other dogs and people of all ages including children.
When she gets excited she tippy taps...she is looking for a loving home to spend her remaining days in.
She’s about 65 pounds and in good shape. She loves outings of all kinds! She’s great with car rides.
She’s potty trained, leash trained, house trained.
She just had a senior exam that went great. Bloodwork came back normal. She had a small fatty lump on her leg that was checked and there is no concern.
She was surrendered to our rescue at 5 years old from someone moving, adopted then given away 2 years ago when the couple divorced. Earlier this year she ended up at the high kill shelter dumped and they called us to pick her up. She has been with us looking for about 6 months now.
Spayed, vaccinated, dewormed, chipped, on Nexgard spectra.
