No. I wouldn't I would have blood work and a fecal done and if she doesn't have any shots she will need some of those. I know my vet will not give me heart worm preventives unless she has had a recent heart worm test and she will need to be on a preventive. A second dog is twice the cost for everything try to remember that. I know its hard when you want to rescue one but she will need care maybe even more then you think if she is free from a breeder and the women wont tell you anything about her.
