My story

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

Hi everyone. Remember me? It's Kris Kross, your favorite GCAC alum. I got rescued by Friends of Dogs in July 2023. I was a mess when the officers brought me in. I had a thin scar around my neck from where I used to be tied up. That hurt. I also had a sore back ankle and infected ears. To top things off, my eyes are kind of crossed. Friends of Dogs didn't save me because they felt sorry for me. They saved me because I'm a sweet, happy guy who deserves a shot at a good life. They saved me because I have a kind heart. I guess kind hearts always recognize other kind hearts.

Ms. Susan took me home and then to the vet to assess me. Well I'm about 3 years old, 43 pounds and heartworm negative. The vet thinks I may have had some trauma to my head at some time affecting my brain and also causing my eyes to cross. My sore ankle is from previous trauma but the vet didn't think I was in pain from it. Could be the injury to my leg caused it to grow incorrectly. I'm still growing and my growth plates aren't fused yet. So we'll wait and see about that. Right now it gives me a cute little hop when I walk.

Ms. Susan has been keeping me safe and secure since then and letting me get comfortable in a caring place I've never had before. I've been neutered and I'm ready for my next step in life's journey. I need a special home or sanctuary. My greatest joy in life is to be with people. I yearn to be close to you and long for your tender touch. I'll soak up your pets and cuddles like a sponge. Sure I'm fine with other dogs and enjoy the company. I'm cordial and polite to the other dogs and then hurry to get back inside with my people.
So there I am. I can be a little anxious and needy likely due to my past trauma. I'm a special boy with a lot to offer. I'm ready to go to a home that understands my needs. I'm up for going to another rescue which is used to dealing with dogs like me and could pair me with just the right home. So many possibilities. I just need the right one. Please share my story. Someone out there is waiting just for me.

He is microchipped, fully vaccinated, & neutered. He is being fostered in Seguin, TX and is ready for her new home.
