We pulled this fella off the street on August 5, with the intent of reuniting him with his people. Despite a lot of social media, rescue and animal control listings and flyers we have not succeeded in this effort. So our focus now is to find him the best rehome situation and while working on that, through some kind donations from friends, we have had him checked out by the vet (heartworm negative and fecal clear)and given him his vaccinations and started on heartworm, flea/tick prevention.
He is a sweet, energetic, 1 1/2 yo with some remaining puppiness. Some of his defensive behaviors from his time in survival mode are clearing up and being replaced with selective trust of caregivers. He is hyper-reactive to people outside the car when we take him for rides. The vet’s opinion is that his injured leg was due to some trauma rather than the result of surgery. The half leg remaining has some tissue trauma and she recommends surgery to remove the remaining “leg”.
Hoping for some guidance on how to find a loving understanding home for this guy with training opportunities to help him be his best loving pet self.
