About Dutchess

OUT OF STATE ADOPTIONS: We do allow out-of-state adoptions for ADULT dogs, however, the adopter MUST come to Houston to get the dog and take the dog home with them. We do not allow our dogs to be shipped. Also, our puppies can only be adopted to the immediate Houston vicinity as it takes 4 months to get them completely vetted at our vet here in Houston. We will not allow our dogs/puppies to be adopted out of the area without being spayed/neutered. We spay/neuter puppies at 4 months old. As Dutchess' foster parent, I can tell you that time and time again it's dogs like her that catch me off guard and make me wonder 'should I keep this one?'. She is the classic example of the unsuspecting, frequently overlooked and always underestimated little brown dog... yet we have totally fallen in-love with her. Whoever adopts her will be bey ond lucky. Dutchess was rescued from a trailer home recently. She is extremely well mannered and great with the small children (there were four children ages nine months to 5 years living in her former home). Dutchess is smart, loving and well behaved. She loves attention and will do well with a family that truly makes her part of their day to day. She can be slightly dominant with other dogs at first but adjusts very quickly and did well with her prior foster's 'cat in charge'. She walks well on a leash and is potty trained. She loves to ride and hasn't been car sick. Dutchess loves to cuddle on the couch and while she's been sleeping in our bed lately, she is also fine with sleeping in her own bed. She responds quickly to her name and is overall a perfect companion. Dutchess is a Standard dachshund mix that was estimated to be around 1 year old and weighs 25 lbs. PUPPIES: Young puppies that have not had their second round of puppy shots will not be at the Adoption Center for our weekend adoption events. If you are interested in adopting a puppy, please fill out an application on our website http://www.k-9angelsrescue.org/k9_angels_rescue_adoption_process.html. If your application is approved, a meeting can be arranged. Also, we only adopt young puppies locally due to the 4 month time frame it takes to get them fully vetted and altered. SPAY/NEUTER: As we believe proper healthcare of one's pet is a requirement of good ownership K-9 Angels Rescue only adopts out dogs that have been fully vetted. If the dog being adopted is not already altered at the time of their adoption, the dog will be altered within 2 weeks of adoption at our vet at our cost, with the exception of puppies which will be altered as soon as the puppy is ready. NOTE: All dogs are officially the property of K-9 Angels Rescue until they are altered by our veterinarian. Please LIKE and share our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/k9angelsrescue.
