Toy Fox Terrier puppies and dogs in Norwalk, Connecticut

✅Currently located in South Korea✅️ 💟Available to fly to JFK&EAR💟 Meet Maesil❤️ Maesil was brought to the Jeonju City Shelter, but her health quickly deteriorated. When the Adogs team visited a hospital, they found Maesil too weak to stand. She was in urgent need of care, so they rescued her immediately. * With People: Is shy around strangers. Sniffs when someone unfamiliar enters her space but runs away if they give her attention. However, once she gets to know you, she becomes affectionate, wagging her tail and asking for cuddles. * With Dogs: Likes canine friends so much that she sometimes misunderstands their barking of hate as signs of favor. Tends to like playing tag with friends. * With Cats: Does well with cats. Approaches and wants to play, as if they were dogs. * Separation Anxiety: Is independent and can be left alone without issues. Mostly spends her time sleeping or wandering around the home carrying around a toy. Also stays well with another dog when her guardian is away. * Potty Training: Fully trained to use pee pads indoors! Has a slight preference for outdoor potty. * Hygiene: Walks around in the shower booth, but she gets through baths. Must be held when drying her fur since she’s afraid of blow dryers. Does well with brushing and nail trimming. * Walks: Has improved a lot for leash pulling. However, becomes anxious when she hears loud noises from cars or motorcycles pass by. Likes birds and tries to chase them during walks, but quickly comes back and walks normally. Does well in familiar places but is still uncomfortable with new places. Is being introduced to a wider range of walking spots gradually. * Car Sickness: No symptoms of motion sickness anymore! Is scared if put into a toddler’s car seat. 💌Special Notes💌 * As a puppy, she may need training in areas such as separation anxiety, potty habits, biting, nipping, whining, disorderly behaviors, howling, and barking. * It is difficult to predict her hair loss and growth size because her parents are unknown. * Has already mastered several commands such as “sit,” "left paw," "right paw" and "lie down." * Has a timid personality. May bare her teeth or slightly nip in scary situations like getting shots at the vet’s. * Is teething so she likes biting wood sticks and frequently carries toys around. * Has a strong appetite, so when other dogs approach while she’s eating, she growls and becomes defensive. Needs to be fed separately from other dogs. * Barks at external noises, so she is taking training. * Tends to eat quickly, so she’s currently using a slow feeder. * May get startled by loud noises like the sound of suitcases or carts being pulled, or when objects fall. * Stays calm and well-behaved inside a travel bag. 💙 Foster's Instagram: @_adogs_maesil

Meet Binnie🤍 • With People: Binnie is a sweet and energetic dog who loves people once he warms up. He may be wary of strangers at first, especially if approached quickly, and may growl slightly. However, if given space and time, and a few tasty treats, he will quickly bond and show his affectionate, playful side. • With Dogs: He is polite and neutral with other dogs. He doesn’t initiate contact but responds well when other dogs approach. • With Cats: Binnie is gentle and respectful around cats. • Separation Anxiety: He is very independent and does well when left alone—usually resting or entertaining himself with toys. • Potty Training: He prefers outdoor potty breaks, but also uses indoor pee pads reliably. • Grooming & Handling: A grooming superstar—Binnie tolerates baths, brushing, drying, and teeth brushing without issue. • Walking & Leash Training: He loves walks and walks in sync with his guardian. Occasionally startles at loud noises like motorcycles but is improving every day. • Car Rides: No motion sickness—Binnie rests calmly in the car. 💌Special Notes💌 • Binnie knows commands like “Sit,” “Down,” “Paw,” “Other Paw,” “Nose Touch,” “High Five,” and “Kiss.” • He may occasionally show defensive nipping if uncomfortable or startled, so spatial awareness and gentle boundaries are important. A home that can continue reinforcing structure and calm handling would be ideal. 🧡 Foster's Instagram: @imbo_family_ ** Health issue: Fully recovered from heartworm

Hello, My name is Dodge. I was found wondering the streets on December 16th 2024. I was running under cars trying to avoid getting hit, but because I wanted to be saved, I just couldn't resist "dodging" into traffic! The lady that saved me was already fostering for a dog through a rescue called woofwoof fosters. It was then that i knew that i would be in great hands. I have seen the vet a few times and also went to UT in Knoxville, TN at the rehab center for small animals. I was told that I am approx. 10 years old. I do come with some things that will need to be monitored, but nothing too bad really. The vet wants me to stay on a heart pill that is supposed to help with my suspected heart murmur. I am using eye ointment once every 12 hours and am not allowed to jump up and down on things. I go back to UT for a recheck in Feb. I will go outside to potty and will also use a pee pad. I am looking for my forever home where I can spend the rest of my days in a loving home. I have been through allot, but I am looking forward to cuddling with you! I am very vocal when I'm not being held if you are near me. I just love melting in your arms for a nice long cosey nap, Below is what was sent to my rescue home from UT. Please take a look and see if its something that you wouldn't mind dealing with so I can be your little companion for a while. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to my rescue mommy who is also the founder of woofwoof fosters. She is a really nice lady that is tending to my needs. ( the rescue is also located on her property). Thank you ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ TITLE: DISCHARGE INSTRUCTIONS DATE OF NOTE: JAN 09, 2025@12:22 ENTRY DATE: JAN 09, 2025@12:23:03 AUTHOR: BENNETT,BOBBIE EXP COSIGNER: DRUM,MARTI URGENCY: STATUS: COMPLETED (34-96-26) DODGE DR. MICHELLE ESPY WOOFWOOF FOSTERS MONROE COUNTY ANIMAL HOSPITAL 3790 CLAY HOLLOW ROAD 116 SANDS ROAD SWEETWATER, TN 37874 CANINE MIXED BREED DOG SWEETWATER, TN 37874 MC 2014 BLK/WHT 423 337 7432/423 337 2494 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- DATE OF ADMISSION: JAN 09, 2025@10:00 DATE OF DISCHARGE: JAN 09, 2025@_____ CLINICIAN(S): MARTI DRUM DVM, PhD, DACVSMR STUDENT: Bobbie Jo Bennett ============================================================================= DIAGNOSIS: 1. Thin body condition 2. Lumbosacral pain - open etiology 3. Left hip pain - open etiology 4. Heart disease (open etiology) - Grade 4/6 murmur - suspect mitral valve disease 5. Hair loss 6. Generalized muscle atrophy (moderately severe) weight: 4.09 kgs (9 lbs.) ============================================================================= CASE SUMMARY: Dodge is an approximately 10 year old male castrated mixed breed dog that presented to UTCVM Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation Service for hindlimb lameness and ataxia. He was found 12/16/24 under a truck and taken to a veterinarian where he received radiographs (x-rays) that indicated chronic intervertebral disc disease at the thoracolumbar spinal junction. On physical exam Dodge had some moderate pain in his left hip on extension, moderate pain on compression of the ilial wings bilaterally, and moderate pain on tail extension. Other abnormal physical exam findings included a grade 4/6 heart murmur, some moderate debris in both ears, and some moderate alopecia (hair loss) along his back. All other vital parameters were within normal limits and his neurologic exam was normal. As discussed, there were a couple of different diagnostic and treatment options. One plan included sedated pelvic radiographs to evaluate the hip and lumbosacral junction. If significant arthritis documented, a course of anti-inflammatories if significant arthritis or lumbosacral disease was present. If fully characterizing the degree and cause of his heart disease is a goal, an echocardiogram to determine his heart's current size and function is the starting point. As we discussed, since he is currently on Vetmedin, if his heart is normal on echo it could be an effect of the Vetmedin improving his heart size. A true baseline would be to perform an echo after discontinuing Vetmedin for 30 days. If his echo while on Vetmedin, than routine cardiac follow up per the cardiologist would be standard of care for monitoring progression (usually a repeat echo every 3-12 months depending on severity of disease). Because Dodge still us underweight and just beginning to stabilize into a normal home, we recommended continuing good nutritional support, time, and monitoring to see if Dodge's weakness persists once he gains muscle mass. Though we had also discussed adding fish oils, Dodge had a positive pancreatitis test during his vomiting episode. Fats in the diet can sometimes trigger pancreatitis, so we are recommending waiting until his body weight normalizes before introducing any additional fat into the diet. Similarly, the addition of the anti-inflammatories could disrupt the GI system and since his mobility is fully functional, we prefer to wait at this time to start any anti- inflammatories. If you note worsening of his mobility, difficulty rising or limping on the left hind, then we would consider starting an NSAID medication for dogs. ============================================================================= MEDICATIONS: 1. Vetmedin 1.25 mg: Give as previously prescribed 2. Optimmune: Give as previously prescribed ============================================================================= CURRENT RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Continue Dodge's current diet & caloric intake. We calculated his energy requirement as 361 Kcal/day and his Purina One Small Bites contains 362 Kcal. The Lil Cesar's contain between 60-80 Kcal per packet. It is fine to continue the kibble and Cesar wet food at this time. 2. Continue his Dasuquin joint supplement. 3. Monitor for any signs of noticeable gait changes or pain (limping, lameness, holding a paw up, dragging or scuffing paws, swelling, vocalizing or reacting to palpation, unusual posturing, etc.) 4. Regular exercise: We do want Dodge to rebuild muscle as he is gaining weight. The best low impact exercise would be walking. We recommend starting the 10-20 minute walks once daily. ============================================================================= FUTURE RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. Consider adding in an omega 3 supplement (fish oil) if skin/coat does not respond to a high quality balanced diet. 2. Consider an echocardiogram for full cardiac evaluation with the Cardiology service. ============================================================================= RECHECK EXAM: WHEN: In about 6 weeks (~February 20th) WHERE: UTCVM Physical rehabilitation service WHY: Re-evaluation of mobility, hips, and lower back for further treatment options. ============================================================================= Thank you so much for bringing in Dodge today. He was the sweetest boy!!! If you have any other questions or concerns about Dodge's care, please don't hesitate to reach out. /es/ MARTI DRUM DVM, PhD, DACVSMR SACS Rehabilitation Signed: 01/09/2025 13:27 for BOBBIE JO BENNETT MSc, Clinical Student - Class of 2025 /es/ MARTI DRUM DVM, PhD, DACVSMR SACS Rehabilitation Cosigned: 01/09/2025 13:27 ** END ** This animal is being fostered in the South but transport to a location near you is included in your adoption fee.
