Housebroken? She’s potty trained!
Story: Monkey was rescued from a shelter in North Carolina. We are so happy to have her safe and sound in a foster home in the DC area now. Monkey is a happy sweetie who loves people and gets along great with other dogs and puppies. She knows just how to get comfortable up on the couch with her humans, and will love to join you on walks and trots around the neighborhood. Monkey is just looking for someone to be her new best furend and we know that she will repay them with endless amounts of love and tail wags. Like all dogs, Monkey will need an adopter who is committed to setting her up for success by enrolling in obedience training and exercising her both mentally and physically. She will also need love, patience, and socialization in order to thrive!
What my foster says: Monkey is just the sweetest baby and has already found her way onto the couch and snuggled up in blankets. She seems potty trained so far, and hasn't had any accidents in the apartment. She's done wonderfully getting in and out of the elevator in the apartment, and has generally seemed pretty nonchalant around other dogs. Despite being a senior pup, she still gets those zoomies outside and had a lot of fun rolling around in the grass. Monkey took well to being wiped down and being handled! I think she must've been someone's baby at some point, since she's SO affectionate and loving. She's quickly made herself to be a little shadow when I move around at home.
The fee to adopt Monkey is $350. That covers the cost of all her vaccines, her spay, the collar she’s wearing, her transport to DC and her care in her foster home. She’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines.
