This Aussie/Boxer Mix - BUMI - Is Our Adoptable Pet of the Week

If that's not one of the most adorable faces ever, I don't know what is. Don't you want to bring this sweet girl home from It Takes a Village?

Our Pet of the Week is BUMI, a one-year-old female boxer/Aussie mix. This sweet girl comes in at a svelte 60 lbs, and she's rocking that gorgeous tricolor coat and tapered nose. It Takes a Village tells us that BUMI has worked with several different trainers - they also tell us she needs a home without kids or other animals. Her previous owner says BUMI is house-trained and says, “She is truly sweet and loves to cuddle.”

If you think you might be interested in adopting BUMI, go ahead and fill out an online adoption application - once you're approved, you can set up a meet and greet with this beautiful gal.

And as always, if our pet of the week isn’t the right fit for your home, please visit It Takes a Village to see the other rescues that need to get fostered and adopted. And don't forget about ITV's RENT A DOG Program. A quick fill form and copy of your photo ID will allow you time out with one of ITV's vetted shelter dogs. These day dates are great for the rescues - it gets them some exercise and new information to help us get them adopted. It’s been a big hit- so don’t miss out!

All of the animals at ITV are examined by a veterinarian, given age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, spayed or neutered, and FIV/FeLV-tested.

ITV is open during regular hours. However, they have received so much support and interest over shut down, that they are still working diligently to review all correspondences. They appreciate everyone’s patience as they find the best matches for their rescues.

To prepare yourself for a potential incident, always keep your vet's phone number handy, along with an after-hours clinic you can call in an emergency. The ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center also has a hotline you can call at (888) 426-4435 for advice.

Even with all of these resources, however, the best cure for food poisoning is preventing it in the first place. To give you an idea of what human foods can be dangerous, Stacker has put together a slideshow of 30 common foods to avoid. Take a look to see if there are any that surprise you.
