Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Bandit!
Nickname: The Frito Bandito
Fun Fact: Bandit is a couch potato, but you have to make sure he can't fall off said couch, because he can't see where the edge is very well!
Rescue: Albert's Dog Lounge
Age: Senior
Weight: 11 lbs
Health issues: Bandit has dry eye, and needs Optimmune ($54 per tube on petvm.com) His vision is not great. He is also either hard of hearing or completely deaf. Alternatively, he might just be ignoring you.
History: Sweet Bandit had an owner, but that person passed away. The neighbor kept Bandit in the barn and fed him once daily for an unspecified amount of time.
Foster home: New Glarus, WI
Activity level: Low
Friendly with: Other dogs, cats, and older, respectful children
Sleep style: Bandit doesn't even attempt to sleep anywhere besides a dog bed. No jumping onto furniture or beds for this guy. He doesn't trust his vision.
Meals: Stella and Chewy's raw kibble topped with pieces of meat
Bark-o-meter: 1/10
Shedding meter: 0/10, but he will need regular grooming.
Fashion: a tux with tails and a red bowtie and cummerbund. He's ready for New Year's Eve!
Signature color: Crimson pops against my inky black fur
Walk out song: "Renaissance" by Eminem
Favorite season: Lying in the sun, enjoying the birds in the sky and the wind through his fur
Best feature: Silky soft fur
Signature Move: Finding a soft bed and taking a nap in it
Love Language: Bandit is so happy to ride in the car on a cozy blanket, hang out next to your desk on a comfy dog bed, or chill out in the living room chewing on a bone while you're watching TV. Perfect companion to just about anyone.
Neutered
Microchipped
Working on potty training. Uses belly bands and pee pads while he acclimates.
Good on a leash and improving
Does not need a crate, just a comfy dog bed
UTD on vaccinations
UTD on preventatives
