Story
Hi my name is Goji Berry but I go by Goji. I am a 7 month old pitbull. I was having trouble eating when I was around 5 weeks old so I went to the vet and found out I have Hydrocephalus. It was touch and go for a bit but was thriving in my special needs foster home. I have had some issues with anemia and have had a blood transfusion but have been doing great since. I have a mild case of Hydrocephalus and am on a few medications which includes Omeprazole (for my hydrocephalus) Vitamin B12 tablet - CoBalequin (for my anemia) and a probiotic - Proviable - Forte for my stomach because I have loose stools. I am still learning a few things including, potty training, I will use puppy pads in the house but sometimes still have accidents. I need to learn not to eat everything in sight and not to chew on things, and am learning basic commands. I am very smart but, learning commands has taken me longer because of my condition. I do like other dogs and puppies if they aren't bossy. I like to chase cats and pick on them, but don't hurt them. I am a vocal girl. I would require someone who is home all the time bc I need to be watched to make sure I don't eat things I shouldn't, and I will require a patient owner who will be willing to take their time with me as I take time to learn. Younger kids would not be ideal but older children would be. I am still learning to not bite hard. I like to eat my food to fast, so I eat out of a slow feeder bowl. I am utd on my shots and will be getting spayed soon

Are you looking for a princess? Papaya is a tiny lady with a big heart, and lots of energy. Papaya is 35 pounds of puppy power in a one year old body. She can be shy at first but warms up quickly. This playful energetic lady would probably do best as the only dog at this time. Her previous owner said that she did okay with kids in the past but any new human sibling should come in to met her before going home. Do you think this beautiful girl could be to right one for you?
