Vet Info: Poochie is confirmed spayed and up to date on vaccines.  Her next rabies vaccine is due 10/7/14.  She is heartworm negative.  Poochie weighs about 30 pounds.

Owner Info: Poochie is a beautiful girl who is blind in her right eye.  She was surrendered to her current rescue by a family who did not have time for her.  The family bought her from a flea market when she was 6 weeks old.  They had her on Craig's List and were going to take her to a shelter and her current rescue could not let that happen.  Her current rescue is a smaller-sized rescue and they are hoping for adoption or placement with a more experienced rescue so Poochie can get the training she needs.  They write, "She is a sweet dog and just needs some training by someone familiar with the breed".  Poochie is an outdoor dog with a fenced yard and is housebroken but not leash trained.  She is good with people of all ages and both male and female dogs.  She is not possessive of toys, treats, or food and has never shown any aggression.  Her current rescue writes, "We are currently treating Poochie for tapes, hooks, and coccidia. besides that- she looks good!"

Update 4/15/14: Poochie is now called Patty by her rescue, and Patty still needs a home!! She also needs some training, like most dogs do, but she is a great dog with her whole life ahead of her! Please help Patty get a new home!
