Hi! My name is Cato. I’m a Husky mixed breed dog, a 3 year old guy and weigh about 80 lbs. I'm a lovable guy that never wants to leave your side. Im currently living with 2 huskies, a toddler, and a Cat! I love life and am a great house guest! I Can stay overnight out of my crate, but I don't complain when I am in my crate. I walk with a loose leash, and have a good recall. I can't wait to get to my forever home! Is that with you? Apply to adopt me today! This cuteness won’t be available for long!
This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. The dog was treated for the disease prior to transport north.
Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH’s heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable. Read more about heartworm disease here here
All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.
This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
