About Valentina

Seeking foster or foster to adopt family. Valentina. approximately 3-4 yr old female Saint Bernard. Spayed and UTD on vet care, vaccines & preventatives. Good with other large dogs. Good with cats. Kids 10+ yrs old. Housebroken & crate trained. Located in temporary foster home in Nashville TN area Ready to be schmoozed by a sweet young saint who loves to snuggle?�%A0 This young gal just wants regular meals, treats, a couch to snooze on, and a yard to enjoy.�%A0 Recently spayed and sadly heartworm positive, this petite girl needs a foster to adopt family to help her through treatment.�%A0 She is housebroken and knows the word kennel means go into her crate and get yummy treats!�%A0 Due to being a stray and needing to fend for herself, she is VERY food driven, which is completely understandable! Gentle isn't in her vocabulary YET when it comes to food. As she adjusts to consistent meals and gains much needed weight, her foster 2 adopt family will need to keep all food, wrappers, trash, safely beyond her reach behind doors.�%A0 Her temporary foster has watched her climb counters, scale cabinets, and clean every speck and crumb from the floor.�%A0 No scrap of food will escape her focused attention! Valentina has had some leash training in her past, but she needs reminding and training.�%A0 This smart girl wants to please and will learn quickly!�%A0 If you have food, she tends to remember better.�%A0�%A0 Her temp foster is unsure what Valentina's play style is because she is still adjusting to her new environment. She may benefit from a similar sized or larger doggy sibling or soak up all the loves and spoiling as an only pet. Due to her chew first, sniff later way of taking treats and eating, young children will not be a good fit.�%A0 However children 10 years and older, especially those who have lived with another giant breed, would be more attention for Valentina to soak up.�%A0 Unfortunately being extremely underweight is not Valentina's only health issue, she also contracted heartworms due to the poor care she received previously. She will need a foster to adopt family willing to see her through her current treatment regimen for the nasty parasites. As is in our basic requirements, your dogs MUST consistently be on heartworm prevention. Once Valentins has completed her treatment and is deemed free of heartworms, then if all parties are agreeable that it's a good fit, her foster to adopt family can adopt her. We pay for her necessary vet care including heartworm treatment and heartworm testing while being fostered.
