He stood calmly through his tick and flea treatments and grooming, winning over everyone at the shelter with his trusting nature. Now that he's safe, he's gaining weight beautifully and becoming healthier every day.<br/><br/>His favorite things? People, dogs, and chest scratches! He absolutely lights up when he's around friends—human or canine—and will happily soak up all the affection you have to give. He's the kind of dog who greets everyone with a wagging tail and a heart full of love.<br/><br/>This resilient boy has left his difficult past behind and is ready for the happy ending he deserves.
