Original: Georgie came from the Prince George, VA shelter with pneumonia. He had been in the shelter for two months. After a couple of rounds of antibiotics, he is now in great shape. His hair was so matted and dead that I gave him a major trim so he could start out with all new hair. This haircut makes him looks a little less like a springer in the pictures, but the hair is growing back very soft and beautiful.
Georgie is not very good with cats. He is good with kids, and I would gladly place him in a home where the kids are age 6 and older. He really likes kids but needs some obedience work to help him fit into a family a little better. George pulls on the leash but has made great progress with this. George loves to sleep in his crate. He will go to his crate and take a nap…with the door open. He likes having a spot to call his own. He has not had one accident in the house.
Georgie would love to find a home where he could just have love and more love. He was an outside, neglected dog before coming to MAESSR…he has discovered the GOOD life and does not want to give it up.
Update: It turns out that George did not have viral pneumonia as we thought. Instead, he has a bacterial infection. We found this out when Georgie got sick a second time. The good news is that it can be treated with inexpensive antibiotics, and we expect him to be well soon!
Do you have room in your home for this guy?
Update: Beautiful Georgie found her forever home!!
