Critter Details

Please contact Paul Slebzak (pauls@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.pretty girl ISO fresh start and love! SARAH SANDERSON NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:  Sarah Sanderson      Best Guess for Breed:   Sheltie and retriever mix    Best Guess for Age:   2 years as of September 2025      SEX:  Female   Approximate Weight:   36 lbs   Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven’t seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:   South Carolina shelter – needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!   Special adoption considerations: Sarah Sanderson is a truly Lucky Dog. She tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment. We are happy to discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator – the address is at lower left!   Sarah Sanderson is Looking For:   Her forever home! This fluffy sweetie is eagerly looking forward to having her own humans for sniffy walks and all the adventures they can dream up, along with the opportunity to make pup pals. And snuggles at the end of a fun day together. Quality kibble and a cushy dog bed are on her wish list as well.  But you know what she wants most of all? To know she’s safe and loved. To know upon whom to bestow all the adoring gazes and love and loyalty she is stockpiling. Is that going to be you? What My Foster Says About Me:  We will update this once she has spent time in foster care   Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.  TO ADOPT:    The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog   Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption.
