My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Dudley was picked up as a stray by animal control. His body condition was listed as 1/9 by the vet. His fur was horribly matted, some of his nails were growing into the toe next to them, his teeth were in horrible condition and he wasn't neutered. As a consequence, his kidney values were elevated. He was cleaned up, put on a kidney diet. A dental was performed when he was neutered. He should have had 8 extractions but one tooth fell out when they scraped the tartar off. He only weighed 10 lbs. Since then, he has gained weight and his kidney values are returning to normal. The vet thinks that he may not have to be on the special diet. He is a loving playful little man who always wants to be in your lap. He is partially potty trained in that he won't poop in the house but he has some trouble with his urine. He is very submissive and if you raise your voice to anyone, he tinkles or if you tell him what a good boy he is, he tinkles. He wears a belly band which takes care of the problem. Dudley gets along with dogs, cats and kids but he needs to go to a home with older kids as he is small and could get stepped on by younger kids who also might be too rough with him. If you think that you are that special family, who will love this little man furever, please contact Rainbow Animal Rescue at rainbowanimalrescueva@gmail.com or 757-472-1583
