Meet Jiminy! He may be small in stature, but this little warrior has been through hell, surviving life in a backyard breeding operation, where he suffered a badly broken jaw and received zero veterinary care until we took him in.
Jiminy must have suffered terribly, as he was barely able to eat, and shied away from human touch for so long, likely due to the unimaginable pain he was experiencing. As a result, he was smaller than his sibling Ricky who we rescued at the same time, Since having his jaw wired back together, his healing journey has begun - both physically and emotionally. First, he began to show a real interest in food. With pain well managed, he started to eat and put on weight at last. It took a little bit longer for him to trust humans, but he is slowly starting to put his uncertainty behind him and seek out affection and touch.
Jiminy is now well on his way to bright and happy future ahead...all he needs is a forever family who will love him unconditionally as he learns to leave his difficult beginning behind him. He is dog friendly, and well-mannered in the home. He is just now learning how to `play` and show an interest in toys. Housetraining remains a work in progress. He will use pee pads and also goes outside, but still has the occasional accident. Leash skills are difficult to gauge at this time due to his uncertainty with the big scary world outside, but given his young age, it is likely something that will improve with time and patience. He tolerates kitchen sink bubble baths, and has yet to accept treats. He does have a sensitive tummy so i is best he stick to his current diet as he transitions from foster to forever home.
Due to his very small size, a home without very children (10+ only who with small dog experience). We are looking for a forever family with a small to medium sized well-balanced canine who can help Jiminy build confidence with behavioural cues. Jiminy also has a hard time with stairs yet, so ideally a home without a lot of steps would be best for him. Jiminy also struggles with stairs so a home without a lot of steps would best suit his needs.
