Pete-adoption pending

My story

THIS POST WILL BE REMOVED WHEN THE DOG IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE. INQUIRIES ABOUT THE ADOPTION STATUS WILL NOT BE RETURNED. Pete is a happy, friendly, purebred Cairn Terrier looking for his forever family. Pete loves people, both adults and children alike and is laid-back and loving. While he likes attention, his favorite thing in the entire world is a tennis ball, or two! Pete fetches and easily releases the ball so you can throw it again and again! While Pete is not yet house trained, he has only had one accident in his foster home. He loves to be outdoors exploring the yard and checking the trees for squirrels. Pete is extremely overweight and has begun his weight-loss journey by adding more exercise and measured portions of food. We expect that he will regain his slim body and energy as the pounds melt away. Pete does have arthritis in both hind legs so gentle exercise and anti-inflammatory medications will keep him comfortable. Pete would love to have a family with older children and a resident dog, but will be flexible in his final selection. Fenced yard a must so that he can indulge in ball chasing and squirrel patrol. The suggested adoption donation for Pete is a minimum of $350 and goes toward the high cost of veterinary care for our rescue dogs.Wag N Train Terrier Rescue adopts to an extended geographical area as long as we can locate a local volunteer to perform the required home visit. Approved adopters are required to travel to Omaha, NE to pick up their newly adopted dog. We do not arrange transport, or fly our rescue dogs without a "pet nanny". All of our dogs that come from a commercial breeding facility require a securely fenced yard AND a resident companion dog, unless the dog's bio states otherwise. Please note, invisible or underground fencing is not considered secure or appropriate containment. Adoption applications can be found at www.wagntrainterrierrescue.com/adoption-information
