Story
Please read the entire bio for this rescue, it will provide all the information that one needs to decide if they would like to apply to adopt from SCMR.Adoption fee: $125.00 Crouton is 13 years old and weighs 17.5 pounds, he is not overweight, he is just a big boy! We are not sure what breed he is, his DNA test say he is 51% Maltese, but his foster Mom wonders about those results! He is house trained, he may have an accident occasionally, but if taken outside regularly, he will be fine! He is not one to 'snuggle', but he does want to be close to his human, he will follow his people around the home, and he loves to sleep in the bed with his family. He even 'begs' to be helped into the bed! Crouton does have a few things going on, he has some cysts on his back, but because of his age and how many there are, we are not going to have them removed. His veterinarian fees certain they are benign. And it is obvious that he has had chronic ear infections in the past that were not treated, and because of the scaring now in his ears, he will always need maintenance for them. Meaning to make sure they are cleaned on a regularly basis. And he also has had yeast skin infections, so he may need the occasional medicated bath. He also has either some arthritis or a weakness in his hips, but he doesn't seem to be to bothered by it, he uses doggies steps to get on the couch, which works great. He is also partially deaf, he can hear very loud sounds, but for the normal level talking he is not able to hear. He responds to hand signals very well, and he can also see really good. Crouton is waiting for his forever home in Gainesville, FL, please consider him as a possible new member of your family! Adoption fee: $125.00 Out-of-state adoptions are possible; however, the approved adoptive home is responsible for making the necessary arrangements to pick up their new little one. To be considered to adopt me, please fill out an APPLICATION. NOTE: SCMR does not adopt to homes with children under the age of 10 years or homes with Electric Fences.
