🩵 Hi, I'm Shoowop! 🩵
I'm a 3-month-old Dutch Shepherd/American Bulldog mix, and while my story didn't start the way any puppy's should, I'm determined to make the rest of it a happy one.
For the first 7 weeks of my life, I lived in a tiny room with no windows, without ever feeling fresh air, seeing sunlight, or stepping on grass. There was no air conditioning, no adventures, and no chance to simply be a puppy. The day I was rescued was the first time I ever felt a breeze on my face, saw the sky above me, and discovered that grass was soft enough to roll around in. It was the beginning of a whole new world- and I've been embracing it ever since.
Despite everything, I'm one of the sweetest, most loving little guys you'll ever meet. I adore being close to my people and have a gentle, affectionate nature that makes me happiest when I'm simply hanging out by your side. Whether you're making dinner, working from home, or watching TV, you can count on me to be your loyal little shadow.
I'm also a social butterfly with other animals! I love playing with big dogs, little dogs, and even cats. The only thing that still makes me a bit unsure is young children. They can be overwhelming for me, so I'd be happiest in a calm, kid-free home where I can continue growing into my confidence.
Brains? I've got those too! I've already learned sit, down, and stay, and I'm always looking for my next lesson. I'm incredibly food motivated, love positive reinforcement, and nothing makes me happier than hearing "good boy!"
I do have a few extra needs that make me a little different- but they certainly don't define me. I've had a handful of seizure episodes in the past, but since starting Keppra three times a day, I haven't had a single one. My medication has helped me feel fantastic, and I'll need to continue taking it for life. I also eat a prescription gastrointestinal diet to keep my tummy feeling its best. My rescue will make sure my future family understands exactly what I need, because with a simple routine, I'm able to live a happy, playful puppy life.
My dream home...
🤍 A calm home without young children
🤍 Someone who doesn't mind sticking to my medication schedule
🤍 A family who enjoys training and watching a smart puppy blossom
🤍 Another friendly dog would be a bonus, but not required!
🤍 Lots of cuddles, adventures, and unconditional love
I've already experienced what it feels like to miss out on the simple joys of being a puppy. Now I'm making up for lost time and soaking up every bit of love I can find.
If you're looking for a resilient little soul with a heart as big as his ears, I promise I'll spend every day reminding you just how special second chances can be. 🩵🐾
Showoop Notice: I am prone to seizures occasionally but I have been seizure free for a month now! I am on kepra medication.
