special notes: currently in foster care heartworm positive











profile

Shelby traveled here from down South in search of a loving home. Upon arrival, she tested positive for Heartworm disease. Canismajor.com describes the disease as, Heartworm infestation is dangerous; untreated dogs die and treated dogs go through weeks of discomfort while the worms are killed and expelled from their bodies. Though most of Shelby’s past is a mystery, the staff recommends a feline-free home. Also, due to her condition, Shelby needs either a home with no dogs, or possibly, a calm male dog. She has had one Heartworm treatment thus far and will receive two more in the beginning of April. Then, once she receives the thumbs up from our vet, she can be spayed. Shelby has a very pleasant temperament and will make a wonderful addition to any family.
