Spirit-Talker & Bagera fighting for Zsanett's attention!

Senior Star Shaqiri!

This is Shaqiri!
Shaqiri is somewhere between 6-8 years of age.  She is completely blind but can she get around.  Shaqiri has been around other dogs and cats but likes to hang by herself-except at sleeping time!  Shaqiri doesn’t ask to go out but will get up and sniff around.  She is a great traveling dog and would do well with a long-distance driver.  Shaqiri is spayed and has had her rabies vaccination.  Her senior adoption fee is $50.00.

I love to play!

This is Picasso!  Picasso is all Blue Tick Coonhound.

Picasso came to Ferdinand’s Familia from one of San Diego County’s Public Shelters.  Picasso’s facial deformity is either congenital or human trauma.  The specialist who take care of Picasso removed four teeth so they wouldn’t cut into his mouth.  Picasso’s disability does not slow him down one bit!  He loves to play with both cats and dogs.  He is a sloppy drinker and can get into everything!  Picasso’s adoption fee is $150.00.  If interested, please contact us at janice@ferdinandsfamilia.org.

Sir Maxwell!

This is Maxwell-one of our Senior Stars . . .
Maxwell is a November rescue to Ferdinand’s Familia and with the help of a generous supporter Maxwell was able to receive dental work and neuter surgery.  Maxwell has 3 teeth-one of which is quite apparent in the picture.  He gets along with cats and dogs; however, he does like his own sleeping space.  The majority of Maxwell’s diet is soft food but he can chew kibble.  It appears he was fed table scraps as he looks helplessly to his eating human.  Maxwell is a little face shy and loud-sudden sounds and movements startle him.  He is taking MSM once a day for his hips-AND LOVES TO WALK!

Maxwell’s adoption fee is $75.00.  Please contact Ferdinand’s Familia right away to meet Maxwell!

Believe it or not!  Downey was born in the Spring of 2010!  We are not sure of his exact birthdate-as he was one of a couple of litters rescued from a local stable area!  Downey will be a big bunny!  He is very friendly on the ground and is getting “use to” being held by humans.  Downey has been around other bun-buns, cats and dogs!  He has lived both indoors and outdoors and does very well with his box!  Ferdinand’s Familia is currently accepting adoption applications for Downey!
