LOOKING TO BE ADOPTED:
CH Tephra's Journey to the Ring of Fire, "Lava"
Lava is available for adoption. DOB 4/1/22. She is a nearly 3 year old female who is sweet, cuddly, playful and a bit of a clown. She is not the best retriever but will retrieve stuffy toys indoors. She is super friendly with humans and dogs. She got a tick borne disease, Anaplasmosis, when she was younger and it has mildy damaged her heart (enough so that she cannot pass her OFA breeding heart certificate). However, repeat ECHOcardiograms show that it is stable and not progressing. You would never know she has a small heart defect as she is so athletic and has loads of endurance. She will never need medication for this condition and will live a normal lifespan. She has good hips by radiographs. She would do best in a home where she is given regular walks/hikes and is allowed to sleep in your bed with you. She would be fine with other dogs. She may chase your cat so not sure that is a good option. And definitely no birds, chickens that free range, goats, etc. She has strong prey drive.
