COURTESY
LISTING for SSNEC:
TESSIE*
Tessie was turned
in to a local shelter as a stray. She
would've probably been put to sleep as she's
very overweight, older, and acted very
frightened initially. Once away from the
shelter environment, she blossomed. She
loves to be petted, likes the company of the
other dogs in her foster home, and enjoys being
taken for walks. Between being on a low-calorie
diet and getting exercise, she's already lost
weight. We think Tessie is about 9 years
old and she's housetrained and crate trained.
Although she's comfortable outdoors or in the
garage, she loves to come in the house and just
hang out. She sometimes barks at cats on
her walks. Unfortunately, she tested
positive for heartworm disease. She's had
the treatment and is doing great. She will
need to be kept on a heartworm preventative
medication (like Heartgard) for the rest of her
life, as well as retested again in four months
and regularly after that. Tessie is
looking for that special family who can look
past her weight and other issues and see what a
sweetie she is. She has lots of love to
share and with exercise and being kept on her
diet, she will lose more weight and continue to
thrive. If you can open your heart to this
special needs gal, please contact Sue Green,
Rescue Coordinator, Sacramento Sierra Norwegian
Elkhound Club, at
seg1seg@aol.com
to fill out an adoption application or get more
information.

GERRY
Gerry
is a sweet boy who we are guessing to be 5-6
years old. He arrived in rescue
heartworm positive and looking for help. He
is now heartworm negative, neutered, and up
to date on shots. Gerry is sweet, Sweet,
SWEET. He may have some golden retriever,
collie, chow or elkhound or whatever in him
weighs about 50 lbs, and has a plume-like
tail which he carries high and happy most of
the time. He does like to be hugged and to
be silly. He would stick like glue if you
let him and seems to want to protect
without being very aggressive. He is just a
pretty boy and would make someone a
lovely buddy, particularly if they like to
hike or walk. He wants to be quite active
but has decent leash manners. If
you are interested in adopting Gerry, please
