If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail it to Miranda at [email removed]. You can find the adoption questionnaire by visiting this website: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ Banksy is incredibly intelligent but didn't have the best start to life. This makes Banksy incredibly nervous in new situations. He loves women and tends to pick a person and stay by her side. He is very cautious with new people around, so he needs a quiet home where he can follow his owner around adoringly. He needs a dog-savvy person who understands he needs time & patience as well as positive reinforcement in order to work on his trust of people. He is very smart and has learned tricks and names of toys easily. He needs a home that can provide mental stimulation, love and patience when he meets a new person. Banksy is housetrained and plays nicely with other dogs and cats. He loves car rides, giving kisses, going for runs, and cuddling with his family once he trusts you. Breed Estimate: Border Collie mix Gender: Neutered Male Approximate weight: 40 lbs Approximate age: 5 years (born 8/8/08) Location: Fairfax Station, VA Housetrained: Yes Coat Type: Medium length The adoption fee for this dog is $275. This fee INCLUDES spay/neuter. If the animal you are adopting is not already spayed/neutered, you will be required to sign a contract legally obligating you to have the animal altered. ***Note that puppy adoption fees generate revenue that goes towards older, special needs animals that need our help. They include surgeries, heartworm treatment, boarding costs....all things that often result in adoptable dogs and cats being left behind to be euthanized. So adopting a puppy saves not just one life, but many! Our adult animal fees range and are based on: fees we pay to shelters; vetting costs; transport costs and boarding costs. Some animals cost more than others to rescue so that is why our fees range from $275-$350.
