Elizabeth and her husband are members of the US Navy who are preparing their family for an overseas adventure for the next two years. They had their furry family members, Chewie and Zelda, all set with their plane tickets, but the airline cancelled their flight due to heat restrictions last minute! Now Elizabeth is scrambling to find a temporary foster family for Chewie and Zelda as quickly as possible until the conditions are right for them to join their family overseas. Chewie and Zelda are currently in Jacksonville, FL, and will need foster care from 7/7/2019-10/10/2019.
Chewie is a 3 year old neutered male Rhodesian Ridgeback and is about 70lbs. Chewie is microchipped and up to date on his vaccinations, flea/tick medication, and heartworm prevention. Chewie is a pretty good leash walker, crate trained, and knows commands for sit, wait, lay down, and paw. Chewie is super laid back and mellow. Chewie loves treats and cuddles. He does well with other dogs, cats, and kids.
Zelda is a 2 year old spayed female mixed breed. She is about 45lbs, and is also microchipped and up to date on her vaccinations, flea/tick prevention, and heartworm prevention. Zelda is leash and crate trained, and knows commands for sit, wait, lay down, off, and no. Zelda is more high energy than her brother and requires a good amount of exercise each day to keep her at her best. Zelda is a vocal player and gets along well with other non-dominant dogs and is okay with cats under supervision. She loves kids and people!
