Story

Even though Odie was abandoned by his previous family, he still loves people. He gets along with other dogs and children. He is high energy and hasn't learned to meet other dogs. He can be a bit intimidating to other dogs. His foster brother is a small 13 yr old rat terrier and Odie loves to sleep with him. It takes a slow introduction for him to settle down. If you want a hiking or camping buddy, Odie is your guy. Playing fetch and tug are also favorite things that he likes. He would love a family who would treat him like a family member. . He has already had his dental and is ready to start his new life as a family member.

Story

For inquiries email susannah@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $600 Location: Norfolk, VA Romeo is new in rescue. He came to us as an owner surrender because they no longer had time for him and it was evident! He was starving and emaciated, almost to the point of death. If we had not taken him when we did, he could have died of starvation. He is currently on a refeeding program and thankfully improving. He is currently about 4 pounds but the vet said he should probably weigh about 10 pounds. Luckily, his blood work and physical exam showed he is an otherwise healthy dog. He was given a good prognosis with a complete recovery expected. Romeo will need a home that can provide him with a stable routine. He needs to know he will never be starved again. He is reported to only like older children. A fenced yard will make him happy! Apply now to make him your forever lovebug!
