About Bianca (5.14)

BIANCA is a sweetheart of a petite mixed girl.  She was picked up as a stray by animal control and her foster family is dillegently working to get her thin body healthy again.  She has the softest fur coat ever and it is starting to shine again!

Bianca is more a medium-sized dog, but is still working on gaining weight, and is now at about 55 lbs.  She has a quiet and reserved temperament, with a gentle charm and undemanding nature.  She's relatively young, and now that she's feeling better, her playfulness and energy have increased some.  However she's definitely a more reserved personality.  She's clearly lived in a home before - she made herself comfortable right from the start at her new foster home!  She LOVES to snuggle on the couch and snore the night away on the foot of the bed.  She's housetrained and has not had a single accident, and she has a 'can't miss it' way of letting her person know when she needs out - she's a vocal girl when she wants something!

Bianca is in a foster home with adults, no kids, and a friendly female GSD.  They respect each others space and have had no trouble coexisting.  She's crate trained and has no complaints resting in her crate when the family isn't home.  She lives near an active elementary school play yard and seems unfazed around children, so we think she may do well in a family with kids but would like test further.  She hasn't yet been cat tested, but to date has not shown much of a prey drive.


Bianca is a sweet gentle soul on the track to getting back to feeling herself again.  As she continues to gain weight and feel better, we'll see her blossom more and more.  It appears that Bianca's weight loss may be due to food allergies and that she may need to be on a grain free diet. 

Please Note: Bianca has been diagnosed with EPI (Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency). What does this mean? It means that Bianca's food passes completely through her body without being properly broken down and no nutrients stored. To help her with this, she must be on a diet of high-quality food with a special enzyme mixed in with each meal. This helps her body process and absorb the food properly. She's already gained 5 lbs!


Only one lucky family gets to take Bianca home, and whoever you are you're getting one incredibly gentle and loving dog!  Is that YOU?  Apply now!


DOGS:                   Yes!  Biana seems to get along well with all the other dogs she's been around.  Very small dogs would need to be tested as we have not seen her around them.  N
CATS:                    Unknown, would have to be tested
KIDS:                    Unknown, would have to be tested
IDEAL FAMILY:    A loving family with a moderate activity level and a secure yard to make sure Biana is never again lost or alone.  A patient family who doesn't need an over the top dog but values her quiet, loving ways.  A FOREVER HOME!
 

If you're looking for a quiet, soulful, super sweet girl
to love you and be by your side forever ,
BIANCA may be your dream-come-true!



BIANCA's ADOPTION FEE:   $250

This fee covers only part of what we spend to vet, board and rehab the dogs we save.  On average we spend over $450 on each dog.  We made a decision to keep our adoption fee at the 2005 level even though vet prices have doubled and tripled since then.  We are constantly fundraising to cover the deficit.  At minimum, your adoption fee includes the dog's spay/neuter, heartworm test, heartworm treatment if needed, rabies shot, distemper/parvo shot, bordatella shot, deworming, monthly heartworm and flea preventives, and microchip.  In many cases it also includes surgery and various types of vet treatment for standard issues such as hot spots, ear infections and so on.

STOP!! READ THIS BEFORE YOU GO ANY FURTHER!

  1. We're picky about our adopters. 
  2. Are you sure you're up to having a GSD?  They're not for everyone.  They take a lot of time, effort, training.  They shed year round.  They're big.  They scare lots of people.  They "mouth" and herd.  They're usually strong-willed and stubborn.  You have to have references and a home visit.  If you're not willing or able to deal with any of this, please don't waste your time or ours applying.  
  3. Will the dog be an inside family pet? We do not adopt to outdoor-only homes. All dogs must be indoor dogs.
  4. Do you leave your dog outdoors when you're not home?   We do not adopt to homes that leave their animals outside when they're gone.  You must put your dogs indoors when you're gone.  A 3 yr old adopted MOGS dog died when the owners went to run errands, left her outdoors, the gate was somehow opened, and she was hit by a car.  Tragic and 100% preventable. Even privacy fences get broken into.  Gates are opened.  Thieves steal dogs. Never leave your dog outdoors when you're not home!!
  5. What's your plan for unexpected events and major changes?  New baby? Divorce?  Moving?   How you will provide for your dog if your family breaks up? 
  6. Will you make a lifetime commitment?  It's your responsibility to keep your dog safe, loved and cared for FOR LIFE.
  7.  Do you understand we expect you to keep that lifetime commitment?  It's YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to stick by your family member -- no matter what.
  8. Are you unable or unwilling to make a lifetime commitment? Do not apply.
