More about Hank

Meet Hank — a 8 year-old male Australian Cattle Dog (Blue Heeler), about 40 lbs, in the North Texas area. Hank is healthy, neutered, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm negative, and on prevention.   Hankis a sweet, devoted boy who loves to play ball and be near his person. He’s fully house-trained, well-mannered in the home, and patiently waits for mealtime. Hank bonds deeply with his people and would be happiest as an only dog in a calm, loving home — ideal for someone who knows and appreciates this intelligent, loyal breed.   Hank’s owner is recently widowed and living with an illness in a senior community, and though it is very hard to part with him, she knows Blue needs more exercise and the active life he deserves. He is being rehomed with great love and care, and will be a joyful, faithful companion in the right home.  Please share — let’s help this good boy find his next chapter! APPLICATION REQUIRED from www.dashdog.org  Adoption Fee $450 - the fee is NON-NEGOTIABLE and is not specific for any dog or puppy; it goes to the expenses of the organization as a whole* OUR APPLICATION IS ON www.dashdog.org and must be completed in order to set up a meeting. Our listed dogs ARE READY IMMEDIATELY; we only meet with families WHO ARE READY TO ADOPT! IF YOU APPLY and if WE APPROVE YOU it means we are assuming when you meet any of our dogs and fall in love you're ready to ADOPT AND HIM OR HER HOME!   General Info - PLEASE READ! *Our $450 adoption fee is based on the cost of rescuing, transporting and vetting each dog; we do not try to compete on prices with municipal shelters whose funds are paid by the city. Our philosophy is to rescue highly adoptable dogs, have them live kennel-free in private homes for temperament assessments and individual personalities. We work hard to match EACH dog with the right family - kids or no kids, other dogs male or female and/or cats. With very rare exceptions all dogs over 6 months will be spayed or neutered PRIOR to adoption - dogs under 6 months will include a spay/neuter date AND referral info for lower-cost surgery if the adopter does not choose to use her or his personal vet. OUR VETS WILL NOT PERFORM SPAY NEUTER SURGERIES UNTIL DOG IS 6 MONTHS OLD.
