MOSES (FLORIIDA) Moses says: "I have a few little quirks, but I am full of love and sweetness". Moses just completed his vetting and is now ready for his Furever home! His blood test results are very good, he lost 9 teeth during his dental but still has plenty left and Foster Mom is working diligently to get some weight off of him. His ideal weight is 11-12 pounds. Moses LOVES his walks and will twirl and dance around and get very excited when he knows it's "Walkies" and he walks very well on the leash. He rides in the car nicely, sleeps well, eats well, is housebroken and has adjusted well to the change in his environment. When he arrived, we were told that he cannot be picked up underneath his belly as he would snap at you. X-Rays showed that he has arthritis in two of his back bones which is causing him pain when picked up, so he needs to be picked up lengthwise to avoid pressure on his back. He is currently taking Glucosamine to help strengthen his bones. He has an underactive thyroid so he takes medication to help stabilize him and his blood tests have shown that it is working. Moses has a cataract in his left eye which is causing him no pain. This sweet boy will roll over on his back so you can rub his belly and will offer you his million dollar smile in return. Moses gets along with other dogs as long as they are more chill. He would not do well with small children. His ideal home would have a fenced in yard or a screened in patio as he likes to wander around. We know nothing about Moses' first 7 years as he came to UYR from a shelter. He was only in his adopted home for 2 years and then had to be surrendered. Will you be the one to offer this sweet boy the love and stability he needs and deserves?
If you have any questions or would like to adopt Moses, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
