About Addy

Meet Addy. She is a 9 yr old Terrier mix that weighs 15 lbs. Yorkie and maybe Schnauzer, she does shed. She lost her life time partner/owner to elderly illness and is in need of a new forever home. Her owner spoiled her for sure! Addy needs a home that is quiet and patient, she can take a few days even a week to really open up. (while settling in her foster home she just kind of laid low and did her own thing). Her world has truly been turned upside down and she needs time to take in her surroundings and get to trust her new people. We were told she does not like cats, and she does not like any of the dogs in her foster home, from the 9 lb to the 70 lb dogs. :( She truly is a sweetie once settled in. She does have a medical concern. She walks a little funny, so we thought it was her knees, so off to the vet we went. No knee issues, no back issues, they are good. Eyes good, and teeth are great for a 9yr old gal. The vet thinks she has hypermetria , gait abnormality (characterized by "goose-stepping" movements, resulting in incoordination, a wide-legged stance, and a "prancing" motion). She was put on a steroid to see if that helps her. We will know in about a week or two (end of March). But don't let this be too concerning she is not in pain and she loves to explore the yard and play tug with her toys once she has settled in. She does prefer to walk on carpet though, hard wood or vinyl floors are not her friend. She is house broke and crate trained. This animal is current on all age appropriate va ccines, dewormed, microchipped, and spayed/neutered or will go home with an already scheduled appointment. They have also been given flea prevention. Adoption fee is $350.00. If you are interested in adopting this pet please fill out an application. http://www.ajssearchandrescue.org/adoption-application
