Critter Details

Sweet Pea is just as his name implies! A wonderful, sweet fellow! He is a 12-year-old, neutered male. He and his brother were surrendered to a shelter by their owner. He has been treated for an ear infection and for a flea infestation. He has had his dental surgery and only needed one extraction. He’s keeping his breed recipe a secret but we think there is a dollop of Cavalier spaniel, a measure of perhaps shih tzu and a pinch of good old Canadian mystery mix. Whatever he is, he is indeed scrumptious! He sheds minimally and he loves to be brushed. He is good for his baths and even enjoys the blow dryer. Because he does shed a little, he is not hypo- allergenic.  He is overweight and is working hard to regain his boyish figure. He appears to an allergy of some sort and is sharing a hypo diet with his foster brother and his itching has improved greatly. He is excellent with the foster's dog and two senior cats. He is particularly fond of one of the cats and they can be seen snuggling and grooming each other. He plays happily with his toys. He is a social boy and greets people and other dogs very respectfully while on his walks. He has a sensitive trachea so walks well with a harness. Sweet Pea’s foster family are retired so they are able to provide him with the frequent bathroom breaks he needs. He recently has learned to use a pee pad if needed. He was diagnosed with Lyme disease but shows no symptoms. It seems at  some time in his life, he was exposed to Lyme disease but he is symptom free and no further treatment is required at this time He would be best suited to a home with easy access to a fenced yard. He is crated when alone and overnight. He will often go to his crate for naps. This joyous little soul is sure to brighten the life of his forever family!
