DOG'S DESCRIPTION
Grim has been through an awful lot – found stray with injuries. He has a bump on his head, but we have x-rayed and there is no evidence of trauma and it doesn't bother him at all. He also had to have an incisor extracted. Now that we have him all fixed up he is such a happy fella who loves to play! Grim loves to snuggle his head into you or get belly rubs. He's got a cute little grunt that almost sounds like a piggy when you scratch the right spot! Grim is good with other dogs, however he tends to play kind of rough. He might be a bit too much for small children or an older dog. Grim loves his toys and bed. He is such a special boy and will bring so much joy and laughter to your family!
Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.           
Adoption fees cover basic vetting, spay/neuter surgery (at partner vet if not fixed before adoption), rabies, distemper/parvo vaccinations, treatment for worms, heartworm testing, monthly heartworm prevention and monthly flea/tick prevention (while the animal is in our care), and transport costs from high-kill shelter. Please note that on average, K-9 Lifesavers spend significantly more on each dog than their adoption fee. Adoption fee for HW positive dog also covers heartworm treatment at our partner vets.
