Sacha NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!!
Name: Sacha Best Guess for Breed: Golden retriever mix
Best Guess for Age: 3 years as of April 2025 SEX: male
Approximate Weight: 45 lbs.
Gets Along With: Other dogs. We haven't seen them with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!
Currently Living at: Puerto Rico SHELTER. He needs a FOREVER or foster home to come to the DC area.
Special adoption considerations: Sacha is a truly Lucky Dog! He tested positive for Heartworm disease but has already been treated! 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. We are happy to talk more in depth about heartworm disease and treatment during the adoption counseling process.
Special adoption considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think Sacha would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure he can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes.
Sacha is Looking For: A home to call his own! This handsome guy is coming all the way from Puerto Rico to find his forever family! He's ready to join them for long walks in the park and snuggles on the couch with his humans. He can't wait to experience tummy rubs, yummy treats, and lots of dog park visits to make new friends. What do you say? Are you ready to make this handsome guy part of your family?
What My Foster Says About Me: Coming soon!

Pour toute adoption, nous demandons des justificatifs afin de compléter le dossier de l’adoptant : une pièce d’identité, un justificatif de domicile original de moins de 3 mois, et le certificat d’engagement et de connaissance des besoins spécifiques de l’espèce complété et signé 7 jours avant l’acquisition de l’animal.
Nous demandons également une participation financière, couvrant les frais vétérinaires dont l’animal a bénéficié lors de sa prise en charge (stérilisation, identification, vaccination, etc..). Si l’animal n’est pas encore stérilisé lors de l’adoption, un chèque de caution de 300€ est demandé.
