Dodger

My story

Meet Dodger, a brave and resilient 25-pound dog who is looking for a forever home filled with patience, love, and understanding. Dodger's journey hasn't been an easy one, but with the right person or family, he will flourish into the loyal companion he's meant to be. Dodger's early life was filled with hardship. When Dodger and his sister were found on the side of the road, they were suffering from a prolapsed rectum, which required immediate medical attention. Thankfully, they are both on the mend; his sister has even been adopted! Due to the trauma they endured, they now require special prescription dog food to maintain their health. Sometimes, Dodger needs to wear a diaper to stay comfortable and prevent any accidents. Despite his challenges, Dodger is incredibly sweet and gentle, and he just wants to feel safe and loved in a calm, quiet environment. Dodger would do best in a home where he is the only pet, or with another calm, well-behaved dog that understands the importance of slow introductions. He is not a fan of fast-paced, loud environments, and would thrive in a peaceful, adult-only home where he can have the time he needs to adjust and feel secure. His new family will need to be patient as he builds trust and confidence in his surroundings. If you are an experienced, compassionate dog owner who is willing to take things at Dodger's pace and give him the time and love he deserves, this sweet boy could be your perfect companion. Dodger may need some extra care, but his loyalty and love will be well worth the effort. He has the potential to form a special bond with calm, dog-savvy adults who understand his need for space and gradual introductions. Are you ready to give Dodger the second chance he deserves? If so, he can't wait to meet you and start his new chapter! --- To apply to adopt, please follow the steps for adoption on HalfwayThereRescue.com/Adoption-Process and apply directly here: https://fs26.formsite.com/htrnp/a2k3lsooud/index.html
