Tatum

My story

Please contact Caitlin Finn (caitlin.finn@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.sweet mama ready for her own family! TATUM NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name:   Tatum     Best Guess for Breed:  Corgi and Australian shepherd mix   Best Guess for Age:  3 years as of June 2025       SEX:  Female   Approximate Weight:   34 lbs   Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen her 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: Tatum is a truly Lucky Dog. She tested positive for heartworms, but landed in a place where heartworm treatment is provided! 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 discuss where in the treatment process this Lucky Dog is in right now! Just email the adoption coordinator - the address is at lower left!   Tatum is Looking For:  Her forever home! This sweetie did an amazing job raising her babies Talia, Tessa, Tilly, Tony, Trina, and Tyla, and they're off to get their own homes. Now she's seeking her humans for getting and giving all that affection and love. And for long sniffy walks and romps in parks and adventures - she's a young girl and can't wait to see more of the world!   Most of all, though, she wants to know she's safe and loved and under her own roof. Where she belongs and upon whom to bestow all her adoring gazes and loyal companionship. What do you say? Will you be the lucky recipient?   What My Foster Says About Me:   We will update this once she has 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.   Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!  Please visit us online at    www.luckydoganimalrescue.org   .    BE A FOSTER!!!    Fosters make it possible for Lucky Dog Animal Rescue to save and care for homeless and abandoned dogs!  To learn about fostering, please contact    fostering@luckydoganimalrescue.org   !
