Josie

Josie is a 2 year-old English Bulldog with a heart of gold that's in a delicate condition. Josie is looking for someone to willing to invest in her well being to help live a healthy life. Josie has a heart arrhythmia that is improving, but requires regular medication and potential adopters should anticipate covering $200.00 a month on average for her medications for the foreseeable future. She also needs regular bulldog maintenance like wiping face folds and not allowing her to overheat in the sun. Josie recently had a cardiology evaluation that show she is no longer a surgery risk so she is finally being spayed and will also undergo surgery on an ulcerated eye. Josie is otherwise healthy and a very well behaved girl who loves to roam around in the yard. She is potty trained and crate trained. She walks well on and off leash. Josie does well with other dogs, loves car rides, humans, being petted and is food motivated. Josie's quirks: people with hats make her nervous, loud noises like a vacuum cleaner make her run to another room, and she loves to shred trash bags if you shake them around her. Adoption fee is $350.00 and includes spay/neuter, microchip, fecal/deworming, vaccines and prevention up to date. Ohio residents only. STS is a foster-based and volunteer-run rescue. We do not have a physical location or set hours for you to meet dogs, and it does take time to answer each inquiry. All dogs are in foster homes and once an application is approved and a home visit is completed you will be able to schedule meet and greets with available dogs. We encourage interested individuals to get approved prior to searching as it helps expedite the process. A Petfinder inquiry is not a substitute for an application.
