About LEWIS

Adoption Fee: $550
Australian Cattle Dog / Jack Russell
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Be sure to read ALL information provided. LEWIS was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas where dogs often have only 3 days to be saved. LEWIS is neutered, rabies, core vaccines, heartworm/tick disease tested negative for all. He is de-wormed, monthly preventatives and microchipped. At the time of rescue at the end of November 2020, he weighed around 21 pounds and has an estimated date of birth 12 May 2020. We cannot say for sure what breed he is, so we expect families to do their own research on his look and size and decide what breed you think he is and if you have the lifestyle suitable for his needs. More pictures and possible video's can be found on his page on the rescue website. At the time of writing LEWIS has only been at the rescue a few days and so there is not much information that can be provided. LEWIS is sharing a double kennel with other teenage, high energy dogs and he is having a great time - wrestling, playing and hanging out with his new friends. He can be vocal when he wants attention, but he is young and not getting the exercise, nor mental stimulation that he needs. He is a lot of fun, a complete goofball and is a great size. He is a high energy boy, very affectionate, responsive and takes treats gently. We are only considering families with an active lifestyle since he is an active breed. We are not able to say how he will be around cats or livestock. All dogs use dog doors to go out and do their business or to enjoy the cool, fresh weather in their dog runs or communal areas. We cannot say if a dog is house-trained, however, we expect families to understand that all dogs need a transition period and accidents could happen and training is most definitely needed. All dogs are fed Rachael Ray Nutrish PEAK Natural Dry Dog Food, Grain Free Western Grasslands Recipe with Bison. Rachael Ray Nutrish Peak Dog Food receives the Dog Food Advisor's second-highest tier rating of 4.5 stars. LEWIS is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550 This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food, general day to day cost of running a brick and mortar rescue and anything else that is needed. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada. Due to borders being closed, it is up to families to call the US and Canadian borders to find the current details on border crossing. Animal Welfare is deemed essential in the US, but quarantine rules entering back into Canada must be followed. If you feel that you have the heart and home to give this precious soul a wonderful life, please go to our website, under the ADOPTION INFO tab, complete, then submit the APPLICATION. Our process takes around 2-4 days, and ensuring your references are aware that we will be calling, could speed up the process. Once you have been approved, we discuss any questions in regards to the dog you are wanting to adopt, then you complete and submit the contract, make payment and then we can work out the pick up / transport arrangements.
