This week’s Reston Pet of the Week is Hank, a young Dachsaund mix who is looking for a forever home. Here is what the folks at Safe Haven Rescue have to say about him (in his own words):
My name is Hank, and I am a 1-year-old male Dachshund mix. I am a bigger boy at 22 lbs. I love toys and playing with my kennel mates. I get along with cats.
I also love to cuddle with anyone who will take the time to sit down with me. Are you looking for a handsome boy? Then look no further and request an application. Please contact the adoption coordinator, Dondra, at [email protected].
I am already neutered and up-to-date with all shots. My adoption fee is $325, which includes micro-chip.
Are you and Hank a match? If so, let us know and our sponsor, Becky’s Pet Care, will send you $100 in Becky’s Bucks, as well as some treats.
