6-4-25 UPDATE: "Well, I have been in my Foster home for 2 months now, and not one person has inquired about me. Why? I am the perfect boy, as you will read below, and I am smaller than my pictures make me look! Please don't let my age hold you back! I have lots of life and love to give you! Won't YOU ask to meet me? Please?" Mom calls me "Super Duper Trooper!" Come meet me and find out why!!"
4-12-25 UPDATE: "While I miss my owner terribly, I am doing so good in my Foster home! I am doing great with the other dogs, and I feel so secure and safe in my crate. I do go to the door to let Mom know I need to go out and scratch at the door to come in. Mom has a dog door, but I haven't learned to use it just yet. I do love to lay on the couch with you! I do get really excited when I hear the word "eat", and I know how to "sit" on command. Mom says I am just the greatest boy, and anyone would be happy to have me in their lives!!"
4-2-25: "Hi everyone, my name is TROOPER, and my story is a sad one, but with you, I will have a happy ending! You see, I am an 8-year-old Pug Chihuahua mix, about 27 pounds (need to lose a few pounds!), fully vetted, chipped and HW negative. My owner adopted me as a young puppy and had me all this time. Oh the life we had together, it was wonderful, but sadly, things went awry, and I tried and tried to get him to wake up, to no avail. His family had the Police and Animal Control come to do a wellness check, but it was too late--my beloved owner had passed, and I laid on him, protecting him for several days. I didn't realize they all were there to help me, so I wasn't too overly friendly at the time. Well, they took me to the shelter, but was kind of Mr. Bossy Pants with others who tried to show me love. I was corrected each time I did that, and I am learning that that is not the correct behavior for a cute guy like me! I will need an owner who will keep me in line, and who will show me who is the "Boss" in the family. I do respond to correction well and have been behaving great in my foster home! I do my business outside, and am crate trained, as well as walking great on the leash! I don't know how I am with cats or children but am good with the other dogs in my foster home. I do need an owner who will understand me, knowing I need that firm guidance, and then how happy we both will be!! Do I sound like a guy you'd like to have in your life? Just email my Foster Mom at citizens4animals@yahoo.com and we can make it all happen!!"
"Thank you for taking the time to learn all about me! I look forward to meeting you!!"
Love,
TROOPER
