The Arrival of a Special Pup
When a tiny and irresistibly cute puppy found his way to Marin Humane, he quickly became the talk of the shelter. Despite his charming nature, there was one thing everyone noticed immediately: his surprising chubbiness. This little guy had a journey ahead, both in terms of health and finding a forever home.
At 17.6 pounds, this small dog was considerably overweight for his size. His ideal weight was around ten pounds, so he had quite a bit to lose. The shelter staff had to carry him around, which he didn’t seem to mind at all!
But weight wasn’t the only hurdle he faced. During routine checkups, it was discovered that he had 13 bladder stones that needed urgent removal. Despite these challenges, his spirit remained unbroken.
Described as a “charming, funny little dude,” he captured the hearts of all who met him. His easy-going and social nature made him a favorite, even as he playfully batted at cat wand toys and endured numerous health treatments.
On the Road to Recovery
Post-surgery, the little pup spent some time in a loving foster home to recuperate. The nurturing environment worked wonders, and soon he was back at the shelter, ready for adoption.
He slowly began shedding those extra pounds, with the hope of finding an active family to help him continue his health journey. His dream was a home where he could be as healthy as he was happy.
Known for his expert snuggling skills, he loved nothing more than a sunny walk, often pulling his human companion wherever his heart desired. His vocal nature at mealtimes brought joy to the shelter staff, who found his food critiques quite amusing.
This little gentleman was also great with other animals, making him a perfect candidate for a household with other pets. He was eager to have fun and adventurous playdates with a furry sibling.
Searching for a Forever Home
Overall, this endearing pup was a true gentleman in every sense, longing for a loving family to call his own. His sweet disposition and playful energy made him an ideal pet for anyone willing to give him a chance.
