About Hetti

They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now! Meet the magnificent Miss Hetti, a playful and energetic Mastiff and likely Boxer mix. Hetti's love for tummy rubs, fetch, and Benebone chew toys shows just how lively she is! She enjoys multiple walks each day, though you should be mindful that she may overheat in higher temperatures. Hetti is very strong and is still working on her manners when encountering other animals, so an experienced dog handler is required for her future home. She adores greeting people and, due to her size and puppy-like behaviors, would do best in a household with children over 12 years old. For Hetti to truly thrive, she should be your only dog and have access to a large, fenced yard, as well as an active owner who can provide her with the exercise and attention she needs. All animals at Last Day Dog Rescue are microchipped before adoption, offering you peace of mind if your new companion ever gets lost. Please remember, assessments are based on her foster home environment, so adjustment may be needed in your home. Thank you for choosing to adopt and giving rescue animals the chance they deserve. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
