For the latest updates on the mutts, follow us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/muttlifewi Visit our website: Muttlife.org __________ Meet Tater - Your Grandpa's New Best Friend (and maybe yours, too!) Currently at a Georgia kill shelter - needs a foster or adopter by 9/6 to catch his ride to Cedarburg, WI! Tater is a 6-8-year-old, 21 lb terrier mix, and the definition of a good ol' boy. He's neutered, heartworm negative, and ready to live the simple life. Age: 6-8 years old Gender: Male Weight: 21lbs Breed: terrier mix Spayed/Neutered: Yes Potty Trained: probably Crate Trained: not sure Leash Manners: good Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: not sure Good with Kids: Yes If Tater could choose his perfect family, he'd pick your grandpa - the one who loves slow Sunday drives through the countryside, quiet walks to the creek, and peaceful evenings swinging on the front porch. Don't get him wrong - Tater still has a little pep in his step! He saves it for his weekly zoomies and playtime with the grandkids (or anyone with a decent throwing arm). After that, he's more than happy to go back to relaxing with his favorite human. Tater is currently stuck in a high-risk shelter in Georgia, but he's got a ticket to Wisconsin on 9/6-only if someone is waiting for him. Fostering or adopting Tater literally saves his life. Visit our website to apply and give this sweet, soulful boy the cozy life he's been dreaming of. __________ Adoption fees include the cost of spay/neuter procedure, up-to-date dewormer, vaccinations, heartworm prevention (age appropriate), and certified veterinarian inspection within 30 days of adoption. __________ Review adoption requirements and ensure you meet the necessary criteria to apply! https://www.muttlife.org/adoption-policies _________ ADOPTION PROCESS: 1.)
