When she detects a storm coming, she will bring you her thunder shirt. In addition, she benefits from an all natural medication to calm her in stressful situations.Her perfect home would be with a farm couple where she could be outside at will and come in for her loving. She enjoys playing with non-dominant dogs, most cats, and all kids. Soft-spoken and gentle-touch humans are her preference. She has lots and lots of love to give.Adoption fees include spay/neuter, microchip, up-to-date vaccinations, and current preventatives for heartworm and flea/tick.On-line applications can be completed on our websiteEffinghamAnimalRescue.com
