Available for Adoption – Vinnie!
Where to begin with this old man. He certainly has given our team a scare a few times, but he seems to have settled out and is thriving, so it's time. Time to find him that forever next chapter.
We were approached by a gentleman who's Aunts we both in a Post Falls care facility, and the time had come where it was in the best interest of all to have Vinnie be taken care of by someone new. Unfortunately, Auntie didn't have a plan for who would take care of Vinnie, so we were asked to help out. So last November he came trotting in thru the barn doors.
His mouth was wretched, and he probably hadn't been to a vet in a decade. So first stop was bloodwork and a dental. We got a big surprise when we went to do the dental. Vinnie had a hard spot on his tummy that was super off. So we opened him up. Good thing! A splenectomy was in order. Slowly, Vinnie healed up from that overhaul. But then he had a seizure, so off to the ER. We manage his seizures with meds, and that is going well.
So back to Dr Laura to get that Dental. She took out what was left, no surprise there. And Vinnie healed up with the help of some heavy lifting antibiotics.
We have been monitoring him for the last few months, and things are looking good. He adventures with foster mom, Sheryl just about everywhere. They went camping last month and he had a blast.
If you are looking for an incredible lap man to love on for the rest of his days, Vinnie is your dog! How old? old as dirt, they say (13yrs). Does well with other dogs, uses the doggy stairs, is housetrained, has a deep respect for your space, and will keep you engaged. Vinnie will remain on two medications long-term, costing about $55 per month.
If you're looking to give a sweet senior a peaceful, love-filled retirement, Vinnie is ready to meet you.
Adoption Fee: $100
