ADOPTED!! Nutmeg

Posted Jan 19, 2012 at 12:14 pm in Latest News

Adopted!CongRATulations to the Moss family!Just look at this beautiful girl!  Nutmeg is between 2 and 3 years old, and weighs about 13 pounds.  She loves everyone! She is a favorite of her foster dad, and Nutmeg follows her foster mom everywhere.  She is especially fond of taking one of her foster mom’s shoes to her dog bed, where she happily curls up next to it.  Nutmeg is housebroken with a doggie door, and also crate trained.  She is affectionate and would probably be a great family dog, although she does have a habit of pawing at you when she wants to be petted.  She stands on her hind legs and waves her front paws in the air, and it’s very cute.  Nutmeg rides well in the car, and walks well on a leash.  She obviously had a family that loved her and took care of her, but somehow found herself alone in a shelter.  We are amazed that no one came looking for this special little girl.  She can jump baby gates at a single bound!  She is quite the athlete, and would thrive in an active home where she got lots of exercise.  Her absolute favorite thing in the whole world is a good belly rub, and she’s not afraid to beg for one!  For more photos of Nutmeg, check her album often: CLICK HERE

    She is wonderful. She would do anything for a belly rub! She stiffens up and lays on her back with her belly up, just begging for you to give her a rub. Cora

    Nutmeg’s profile does not say if she is spayed – is she?

    Every dog adopted from a rescue or shelter is spayed or neutered. It is usually a State law. Yes, she is spayed.

    Do you think Nutmeg would be a good fit for my friends Chuck and Carrie Cooper? They initially applied for Burke.

    Hi, Beth! Nutmeg has moved to Green Bay WI, so she will be fostering up there. You might write to LA to see where the apps are with her.
