Critter Details

You can go your own way, or you could bring Stevie Nicks with you. Although she still has dreams of lonliness, she knows the rain will wash her clean and she can go to the silver springs with her new humans. She TRIES to sound like a white winged dove, but unfortunately her Whoo-whoo-whoo sounds like a velociraptor. OTHER PETS: Stevie enjoys spending time around other dogs and is relaxed with them, she would likely get along with other laid back dogs. As with all our dogs, Stevie should meet any dog she would be living with prior to adoption. [Likely (Must Meet First)] OWNER EXPERIENCE: [First Dog] GROOMING: [Minimal]KIDS: Stevie is uncomfortable with some handling, is somewhat resistant to letting go of possessions (but has not engaged in resource guarding while here,) and can also be jumpy when excited though she settles well. Stevie would do best with humans who would be able to follow after care instructions and are comfortable with large dogs. [10+/Dog Savvy (Must Meet First)]ACTIVITY LEVEL: Stevie Nicks is always up for a walk and a sniff, and there is the potential that once her ear issue resolves and she feels better she may end up having a higher energy level than she is currently displaying. Varying walking routes, multiple walks of varying lengths and driving to different locations (like parks or nature trails) for a change of scenery (sniffery?) would all offer Stevie Nicks different smells to ponder while working out her muscles. Regular exercise and plenty of mental enrichment will help meet all her needs. [Good Walking Buddy / Olympic Athlete]VETERINARY CARE: Stevie arrived with multiple polyps in both of her ears and will need surgery to remove them. We are in the process of scheduling surgery for Stevie and interested adopters should check in with staff regarding her current health status. [Above Average]LEVEL OF TRAINING NEEDED: Positive reinforcement training will help Stevie Nicks bond with her new owner as well as help her learn important life skills. Further positive reinforcement training may help her participate in dog sports (with vet approval) and for Stevie to accompany her humans on adventures. [Minimal]
