About this Dog
COURAGE NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!! Come meet Courage and other great adoptable dogs this Sunday (May 5th) from 12-3 pm at the PETSMART in ALEXANDRIA (3351 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22305)! Name: Courage Best Guess for Breed: German Shepherd and collie mix Best Guess for Age: 4 years as of February 2024 SEX: female Approximate Weight: 48lbs Gets Along With: Other dogs! Due to her shy personality, we do not recommend her for a home with children under the age of 12. We have not seen her with cats but she can be tested. Currently Living at: South Carolina shelter Check out these videos of Courage: https://youtu.be/zjcPwPT2k2I and https://youtu.be/fCyabQfLqyg. Special adoption considerations: Courage is a truly Lucky Dog! She 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. When Courage arrived from the shelter, she was pretty reserved in the hustle and bustle of city life. She has been making great strides in foster care! We think Courage would do best in a home that either has a resident dog or who can make sure Courage has lots of opportunities to go on walks regularly with other dogs or visit dog parks and/or doggie daycare with other dogs to build confidence. Courage is Looking For: Courage is sweet but a little shy. She is looking for a home to help her settle, making her feel comfortable, and helping show her what it means to have fun! Courage, just like her name, is bravely starting out on a new adventure and is ready for all new experiences. This girl deserves all the spoils of dog life from fetch in yard to long hikes on the weekend. What My Foster Says About Me: Courage is settling in to the daily routines of her foster family's home. She is letting go of some of her initial shyness, wagging her tail when she first sees us in the morning. She likes to have her chest scratched, and is beginning to nuzzle us for affection. Courage is fine with our resident dogs, respectfully sniffing them. She sleeps all night in her crate and spends time there during the day when people have to be away. She enjoys sniffy walks through the woods, and is learning not to chase squirrels we encounter. She will "sit" and "touch" for treats. Courage has a huge appetite and is putting on some needed pounds. Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training. TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $475, which includes the cost of routine vetting, including vaccinations, spay/neuter, and heartworm treatment. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online at bit.ly/adoptaluckydog Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption. That said, we cannot make any guarantees about age, breed or temperament. Thank you for contacting Lucky Dog Animal Rescue and helping to save a life!

Adopt Courage and Receive Dogecoin
Adopting a pet can be expensive, and we're trying to help by fundraising for each individual in need of adoption. After verifying the adoption, Courage's new family will receive the funds that their pet has raised. Dogecoin is digital currency that can be exchanged for cash, traded, or held as an investment (see the "What is Dogecoin" section below).
0.0 DOGE is Courage's current Dogecoin balance
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. If you adopted the Courage, thank you for providing a home and a loving family!
Please begin the process of claiming Courage's Dogecoin here.
For adoptions in which nokillnetwork.org was the matchmaker and we have contact information for both parties, we make every effort to contact the adopting family. For adoptions that were not facilitated by nokillnetwork.org, we still encourage the adopting family to claim the Dogecoin by submitting the necessary information.
The adopting family is the only party eligible to receive the Dogecoin. The adopting family will be required to provide proof of adoption between 4-6 weeks after adoption. This is to ensure that the home is a good match and Courage was not returned. After we have verified the adoption, Courage’s Dogecoin balance will be sent to the adopting family. Our staff provides instructions and help throughout this process.
"The fun and friendly internet currency."
Dogecoin sets itself apart from other digital currencies with an amazing, vibrant community made up of friendly folks just like you. Dogecoin is a decentralized, peer-to-peer digital currency that enables you to easily send money online.
Learn more about it on youtube or at dogecoin.com.
We want the Courage’s balance to go to the adopting family as a way to say thank you for providing a loving home and to help with pet care expenses. In the unfortunate event we cannot contact them and verify the adoption, Courage’s balance will remain in our general Dogecoin fund. This fund may be used to match contributions made to other adoptable pets, incentify other adoption-related actions, promote our mission, or support the operating expenses of nokillnetwork.org. If you would like to make a direct contribution to nokillnetwork.org to help us help other pets in need, you can go here. We appreciate your generosity and help!
