Blackberry

BLACKBERRY is a sweet-as-pie little mixed breed girl looking for a home. She's about 5 years old and fully grown at 17 pounds, although she could stand to gain a pound or two. Our best guess on breed mix is a chiweenie (chihuahua/dachshund) and Boston terrier mix. She has a Boston terrier face and a long and low little body. Blackberry is a little charmer, stealing the hearts of everyone she meets. She's a sweet low key girl who loves a good cuddle. Blackberry is housebroken, crate trained and good with other dogs and cats. Blackberry does require monthly medication. Our vet detected a heart murmur, likely due to a congenital defect, during Blackberry's exam. She should manage a long happy life provided her adopter keeps her on her meds. The monthly cost of her medication is around $45-$50. If you'd like to meet Blackberry, please fill out a dog adoption application at dreamhouserescue.org. We are happy to arrange a private meet with an approved adopter. You can meet Blackberry at our weekly adoption event, Saturday noon-2 at PetSmart Eastgate. All of our fully-vetted adoptable dogs go to prospective homes for a one-week trial period to make sure the dog and home are the right fit before an adoption is finalized. We only adopt dogs into homes where all current pets are spayed/neutered and current on vaccines and heartworm and flea and tick prevention. We do check veterinary references to make sure adopters are compliant with standard veterinary care. Our adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm tested, dewormed and current on flea and tick and heartworm prevention.
