My story

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

6 year old 13 pound male 
Hubbard came to us from a local shelter 6 months ago. 
He had been hit by a car at some point and has some old and healed fractures. He sometimes skips a bit on a back leg, but it doesn’t seem to bother him. The most significant injury was a spinal fracture that has healed. The surgeon didn’t want to rebreak and repair any of his old fractures because she feared destabilizing the spinal fracture and paralyzing him. He can walk fine, but the damage has left him unable to potty on his own. He needs his little bladder squeezed and poo just poos. He doesn’t mind a belly band and loves to walk around the yard and look like he’s marking his territory with nothing coming out
We are sure there is a family out there who would love this amazing fluffy boy. 
Some of these pictures are before he got shaved and then after his grooming we got to see his beautiful brindle stripes. H e was heartworm positive when we got him and he’s been fully treated.
This is what is foster mom says about him: “He is quiet and inquisitive, loves pets, he doesn’t hang with the other dogs but seems to enjoy their company, feels like he had a hard life and is trying to get used to things being better loves to snuggle. He is such a sweet gentle soul. He has these eyes that look at you like he can’t believe it while he is getting pets ❤️‍”
