PET OF THE WEEK!
MARBLES HARSGROVE
(Jack Russell Terrier Mix, Female)
Meet sweet little Marbles Harsgrove (her foster is a fan of Melissa McCarthy's Marbles Harsgrove character...you can find her you youtube). Marbles Harsgrove is a playful 2 year old Jack Russell Terrier mix with a heart made of gold. This wonderful girl was abandoned at a rural high kill shelter but luckily for Marbles we had an opening in a foster home for her. Marbles has really opened up in her new foster home. She enjoys playing with other dogs, big and small, and absolutely loves to snuggle. After a while in the foster home we have found out that poor Marbles suffers from some food allergies. We have gotten her allergies under control with a special grain-free food and a bath with oatmeal shampoo once a week. Marbles does not let this effect her in the slightest! Marbles has recently started obedience training to help with a couple behavioral issues she was having. We are proud to say that Marbles has excelled in her training and in two short weeks has already mastered sit, stay, down, come, leave it, and go to bed! True to her breed, Marbles is a highly intelligent girl who wants nothing more then to please her people! Jack Russell Terriers can be stubborn and independent at times, so we would like for Marbles forever family to really research the breed and make sure they understand the unique quirks that Jack Russell's have. We would also love for Marbles forever home to have a fenced in yard and a canine companion to keep her company! Marbles is a very sweet and loving girl who wants nothing more then a family to call her own. Could Marbles be your perfect match? She is good with other dogs, cats and small children are unknown. She is spayed, up to date on her vaccines, microchipped, heartworm tested negative and on prevention. Her adoption fee is $200. For more information email dogs@heartlandsmallanimalrescue.org or call Mandy at 574-633-4611. You can also fill out an application online at www.heartlandsmallanimalrescue.org/canine-application.html.
Do you feed Purina brand food? If so, each bag of cat or dog food has a weight circle on the side. Heartland collects these circles and turns them in for certificates to use on Purina food for our foster animals. You can mail your certificates to the address below, drop them off at any of our adoption events, or drop them off in our collection bin at Pet Supplies Plus on Ironwood & SR 23 in South Bend.
We would like to thank Eagle Pack dog food for their generous donation to our rescue dogs! Eagle dog food is made here locally in Mishawaka, Indiana! Their help goes a long way to save the lives of our homeless dogs! Click on the photo below to go to their website!
