Aspen

Our sweet Aspen was found in North Port roaming the streets but was thankfully saved by the Sarasota County Animal Services team. He his hair was so overgrown and matted, that he had to be shaved down entirely! But we're glad we did because he is feeling a lot better now! <br/><br/>We think Aspen is about 2 1/2 years old.<br/><br/>Unfortunately, when he was shaved down, we discovered a 5" thorn of some sort that was coming out both sides of one of his legs. The groomers also found several shorter thorns embedded in his body as well as scratches and even a small wound. This poor guy was clearly on his own for a while, but we're going to change all of that, and find him an amazing home to love and spoil him for the rest of his life!<br/><br/>He can be a little bit nervous at first and doesn't really like a lot of sudden movements (but who can blame him, given his previous history), so we would not recommend that he go to a home with children under 12. He has been with other dogs and is indifferent, so he could be an only dog or go to a home with dogs currently.<br/><br/>He will sit, especially when offered a treat. :) He appears to be housetrained as well.<br/><br/>Aspen is now up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered, and is heartworm negative. He is fostered in Sarasota and his adoption fee is $400. If you are interested in learning more about him, please apply to adopt at https://www.love4pawsfl.org/adopt. <br/><br/>If you have applied with us before, please just send an email inquiry to Info@Love4PawsFL.org.
