Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
I found a new home! Plenty of my friends are looking for one too. Check out other pets at this shelter, or start a new search.

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Leo!
He’s a 2 year old, 60lb, fully vetted hunk!
Leo loves to play with other dogs, but due to his tracheal collapse, he needs to be paired with another dog that won’t constantly get him all amped up. A chill dog, maybe even an older dog that isn’t all that interested in wrestling, would be a great fit. Leo currently lives with a toddler and is great with her.
Leo will require a fenced yard and a family that will continue to monitor his condition throughout his life. We had a scope procedure done on him by a specialist, and he reported that no further treatment is necessary at this time. As long as he is kept from getting too overly excited (which causes a coughing / honking fit), and is never walked on a collar, he should remain fairy symptom free.
If you are interested in adopting this handsome, happy guy, please submit an application at www.mercysdoorpetrescue.org. His adoption fee is $175, and he is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, HW-, and on monthly flea/tick/heart worm prevention.
