Zander, born in 2014, came into a GA shelter in very rough shape. Emaciated, with sores on his ears, pale gums and elevated liver values. He
no doubt lived his life outside, neglected & forgotten. He received the medical care he so desperately needed from our veterinary partner in the south. He is now healthy, neutered and up to date on shots. Zander is a Boxer mix who is about 6 years old and weighs 55 pounds. He is good with all people, other dogs, and even gets along with feline friends! His foster mom raves about what a sweet and smart boy he is!
He can be a little shy when first meeting new people but warms up quickly. He loves car rides, walks (does not pull), and is a professional cuddler. Medically he does have 2 conditions which are easily managed with medication. First is chronic dry eye which he gets eye drops daily and he also has pancreatic Insufficiency that requires medication in his food twice a day. He is housebroken, never had an accident, and he has completed basic 8 week training course. Zander is a handsome, easy going companion who would fit great into any home!
