Story
Meet Rex, a resilient and affectionate boy with a heart as big as his spirit. Rex was born with congenital megaesophagus, a condition that requires him to be fed upright in a Bailey chair so food can move safely into his stomach. He thrives on a high-quality, nutrient-dense diet—currently The Farmer’s Dog, which has been working well for him. Rex will need lifelong management, including special feeding routines, possible medications, and regular veterinary checkups to keep him feeling his best. While this condition may shorten his lifespan, Rex doesn’t let it dim his joy—he is a loving, social dog who delights in spending time with people and embracing each day with enthusiasm. Rex is looking for a dedicated adopter who can continue his care and give him the warm, supportive home he deserves.
