[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's insane to charge $475 for a rescue. [/quote] Rescue dogs need full veterinary attention before they become available. They almost always need to be neutered and often need dental work and heart worm or other treatment. Adoption costs do not typically cover these expenses.[/quote] The price is fine - but Lucky does NOT fully vet their animals. I have a dog from Lucky Dog and I love him (he’s a chocolate lab, was brought up from SC, and that’s all we know other than dates of first shots/neutering), but he had skin conditions that required treatment, a small dog bite on his ear that hadn’t been treated, and hook worm. We happily paid the fee because we know rescue work is expensive - and I’d happily pay more if the animals were fully vetted first and all health problems disclosed and/or treated prior to adoption. I love my dog - he’s awesome and we looked hard for the right dog for us. I’m not sure I’d go through Lucky Dog again though. [/quote]
