Introducing.. gorgeous Gary!

Gary's Story:

Poor little Gary has had such a rough start to life.

At some point during his short life, he picked up a viral disease called Distemper. It attacks the nervous system and only 50% of dogs survive.

Gary was one of the lucky ones that pulled through however he has been left with a life long, and very noticeable twitch, in his back left leg.

He can be a little wobbly at times when walking but it doesn't let it affect him in the slightest and he is just the happiest, fluffy little dog that craves all the love and cuddles.

With other dogs:

So far Gary has shown that he prefers not to be in the company of other dogs. With him being so small, it is likely he was bullied in the shelter and doesn't feel safe around them. We will continue to assess Gary with other dogs by mixing him with some of our current residents but for now, he will be available for adoption as an only dog.

With cats:

Gary is not yet tested with cats. We are hoping to test him within the next couple of weeks.

Gary craves attention from people. He is quiet in his kennel but definitely prefers human company. Any time alone for Gary would need to be built up over time.
