TRAVIS NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!

Name: Travis     Best Guess for Breed:  Chihuahua mix 

Best Guess for Age: 5 years as of April 2025     SEX:  Male

Approximate Weight: 12 lbs

Gets Along With:  Other dogs! We haven't seen him with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!

Currently Living at:   South Carolina shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!

Special adoption considerations: Travis is a truly Lucky Dog. Although he has tested positive for heartworms, treatment has been scheduled! Heartworm is not contagious to people or other pets, but results from mosquito bites. Heartworm, if left untreated, is life threatening, but after treatment, dogs that were heartworm positive should suffer no significant long-term effects so long as they are kept on a monthly heartworm preventative. Heartworm dogs can resume full active and normal lives, but need to be kept calm for 4-6 weeks after treatment.  We are happy to talk more in depth about heartworm disease and treatment during the screening process. 

Travis is Looking For:  His forever family! This small sweetie landed in the shelter through no fault of his own and he is eagerly looking forward to once again having his own humans. Sniffy walks, all the adventures his family can dream up, quality kibble, and a cushy dog bed - yes, please! But at the top of his wish list - well, he's an experienced dog well out of the puppy yips and knows what's most important in life: Being safe and loved and under his own roof. 

He has so many adoring gazes, so much love and loyalty to offer. What do you say? Is he the one for your home and your heart?

What My Foster Says About Me:  We will update this once this pup has arrived in the DC area and spent some time in foster care. 

Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training. 

TO ADOPT:    The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment.  If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog

Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament.
