Hi there! My name is Snowflake and I love my name almost as much as I love snow! I'm a 1-1/2 year old miniature American Eskimo girl who stands about 13-1/2 inches tall and weighs 15 pounds. I'm spayed, current on all my vaccinations and am heartworm negative, but I don't need to be on any heartworm preventive medication right now because it's winter here in Minnesota, and those pesky "skeeters" don't like the cold like I do! I'm mostly housebroken, though sometimes I forget to let my foster mama know that I need to go potty. But she and I are working hard on letting her know when I need to go outside. My foster mama says I'm "little Miss Bossy" because I like to boss around her other doggy kids. :o) I get along okay with them, but sometimes I think I'm bigger and tougher than they are. Because I mostly boss the other girl dog around, but not the boy, I would probably do best in a home either with no dogs or with a very laidback male dog. My previous home had 7 human kids, so I don't mind them at all. I met my foster mama's young niece and I liked her. My foster mama doesn't know if I like cats or not because she doesn't have any. I like to play with tennis balls and chew Nylabones. I love to play in the snow! I run in it, lay in it, burrow in it and eat it. What great fun! I absolutely LOVE to be held and to sit in your lap. As soon as you sit down, I immediately want to be in your lap! I will even hurry up and get into the chair just before you do, so please don't sit on me! And after I'm in your lap, I will give you lots of my sweet Eskie kisses before snuggling close and falling asleep. If you're interested in me, we can do what's called an "Eskie Railroad" if I'm not local to you. This is a group of volunteer drivers who will each drive a certain distance to get me to you! I'm in Two Harbors, MN with my foster mommy, Angela. If you would like to know more about me, please send an e-mail right away! For more information on me, please contact Liz at: liz@eskierescuersunited.org or feel free to e-mail my foster mommy directly at: angelab@eskierescuersunited.org! You can also go to our web site at: www.eskierescuersunited.org and fill out an adoption application for me! Thank you and WOOF! Snowflake!
Eskie Rescuers United
|
Whenever possible Eskie Rescuers United tries to adopt out its dogs locally (or at least to adopters in adjoining states to where I'm being fostered). Please note that ERU processes LOCAL adoption applications before considering those from out of state.
If I'm not local to you, as explained above, and you really have your heart set on me, you will have to make special arrangements so ERU can get me to you safely (for example, flying me to you at your own expense, or paying a transport group to drive me to you). Note: We may ask that you to make a donation to cover transport costs if the distance is great and we have trouble finding transport drivers.
There is an adoption fee required; and, please be aware, Eskie Rescuers United will not adopt out its dogs as outdoor dogs.
