Update on 15 dogs that came in from hoarder

On June 11th we got a call for help from a lady who needed a place desperately for her dogs, after three trips and gathering information we learned that the dogs 15 of them which two were 8 week old puppies were living all in the same house, and they were not taken outside to go potty etc. also were not socialized. 

These sweet Rat Terrier Chihuahua mixes range in age from 8 weeks to about 10 years old maybe, have since been placed in great foster homes where they are getting the attention they deserve as well as socializing and training. 

They will be slowly one or two at a time be getting vaccinated, vet checked as well as spayed or neutered if not already done. Then they will be posted for adoption. No dog will be let go until they have been vaccinated, vet checked as well as spayed/neutered. 

 

 Today Tiny (pictured above) got his Vet appointment and did very well. He is estimated to be about 7 years old but could be older but he shows a younger personality. He got his Rabies and Distemper Vaccinations today and is already neutered. He did well for being in a vet office for the first time probably, the car ride he got nervous but did better on the way home. He got to meet three other dogs, and several people even though he was shy and a little fearful he did good and let everyone pet him.  He does great here at the house too, he does not mind the cats and our other dog, as well as people coming and going. He can get hyper at times and does not really bark a whole lot. He does chase the cats if they run and will bark at them if they hiss or growl at him but does not really hurt them or hasn't yet anyway. He loves to cuddle, give kisses and play with his small stuffed gorilla we gave him to play with. He also loves walks and does well on the lead. If you go outside with him in the yard he does well and does not stray off, and if he starts getting close to the edge of the yard you can call out his name and tell him to come and he will return to your side.  Tiny will follow you around the house as well, and will lay on the couch with you when you watch tv. He is curious as well so will need to be watched so he does not get into trouble and can wonder off if left outside by himself. He is now available for adoption and will make a family or person a great companion.
