More about the shelter
Rescued Tails rescues animals from local animal control facilities as well as high-kill shelters. We tend to specialize in animals that get overlooked due to their age, breed, and/or temperament. Some of our animals live in foster homes and our long-term residents live at our small sanctuary. We believe that each individual life is valuable and will do what is necessary to ensure a successful outcome for every animal.
Adoption application, meet and greet, contract, home visits for dogs, adoption fees range from $125 for cats and $250 for dogs (fees may vary depending upon age and special circumstances)
About Micki
Distance: 1,520 Miles
Micki is a wonderful dog who loves people. She has done well with kids in the past, but does not live with any children at this time. She does live with cats and does well with them. Micki can be very reactive/aggressive towards other dogs, and has gone through some training to help with that issue, but needs to be an only dog in a home. Micki needs to be placed in a home with people who have experience working with dogs who are reactive to other dogs. She must be on a leash or in a secure fenced yard when outside. Micki was born in 2011. Being a senior gal, she has some urinary incontinence which is controlled with a medication called Proin and it works great.
Micki has been through several basic obedience classes, as well as some specialty classes to help her with impulse control. She is very treat-motivated and eager to please. Some of the commands she knows include "sit", "down", "stay", "come" and "place". She walks with a gentle leader, but is still working on heeling nicely.
One of Micki's most favorite activity is to play fetch, and she would play it all day long if she could. She is extremely athletic and very focused on the ball. Micki likes to go swimming, especially if it includes fetching a stick. She also likes to play with toys, but gets a little too excited at the sound of anything that squeaks. While in the house, Micki is very well-behaved and is just happy to be with her people. She also loves to go on car rides and is a great co-pilot.
