This is a courtesy listing, not a SPOT Rescue dog. For more information regarding Baby Girl, contact Sans below...<br/><br/>BABY GIRL needs a real home. She loves people, needs careful introduction to dogs and does not like cats. She has *Megaesophagus (ME) which has been easily managed. We are looking for a forever home with a person(s) that can give extra time to feeding and understand working breeds need more exercise and mental stimulus/enrichment. <br/>FROM FOSTER: Baby Girl (BG) was received 2-5-25. Owners surrendered BG to foster to avoid euthanasia with San Diego Humane Society where they had adopted BG a year ago, spring 2024. They had a new baby 7-2025, work fulltime out of the house and were not successful with proper feeding. BG was slowly starving to death. After owner's unsuccessful efforts to rehome Baby Girl, they took her back to Humane Society and were told surrendering would result in same day euthanasia, so foster took over to keep BG alive and rehabilitate. Dog's name & location (City/State): Baby Girl / Carlsbad, CA. DNA test results: Doberman Pinscher 55%, Belgian Malinois 25%, Dutch Shepherd 20%. Birth Date: 10-14-23. Baby Girl received underweight, 27lbs on 2-5-25. Now, 44lbs as of 4-25-25, vet wants to see her at 60lbs once fully grown. Foster's name and contact:Sans Hartzell, 760-519-4006, SansHartzell@gmail.com, https://www.facebook.com/sans.hartzell/Need of forever home: as soon as possible. She is now at a healthy weight. Spayed 1-21-24. Microchip company went out of business, so chip needs to be reassigned to a new company. Up to date on vaccinations, no medications except flea medication. Full medical records available. ME diagnosed: San Diego Humane Society, Veterinary Specialty Hospital shows imagining 2-11-24. Meals in Baily Chair: Kirkland salmon and sweet potato. 1 cup kibble soaked with 1 cup water for a couple hours in advance, per feeding, 4 times per day. Expected to drop feeding frequency to 2 times a day once at 50lbs. She is fine eating small amounts of raw carrots, veggies or greenies for snacks. Stays in Baily Chair just a few minutes after eating. Eating is her challenge, which requires someone standing by to assist with burping, possibly massaging throat or letting her out of chair to dash outside to regurgitate if food gets stuck. Regurgitation happens infrequently but during the actual feeding and not randomly like many ME dogs. Items that will go to new owner: Baily Chair with bowl and slow feed insert. Wire kennel with 3-sided bolster bed. Small blender, all medical records. Exercise preferred: Loves walks but dog reactive. High energy pup, loves spending hours in the backyard running at high speed, plays very hard and needs to work on bite inhibition with play partners. My dog is twice her weight at 90 lbs and BG is sometimes too hard on him. Housebroken but working on not peeing in her kennel if in longer than 4 hours (a hold over habit from a small puppy bladder and too long of kennel periods). Sleeps 8 hours at night before needing to go out and will notify you by a whimper from her kennel or licking you if not in her kennel. Crate trained but separation anxiety with barking if she is in kennel and you are leaving. We are working on reducing the barking with treat training for being quiet. Will not ship dog. Local meet and home inspection required. *Megaesophagus in dogs is a condition where the esophagus, the tube that carries food from the mouth to the stomach, becomes enlarged and weakened. This enlargement and weakening prevent the esophagus from properly pushing food into the stomach, leading to regurgitation (food coming back up without vomiting) and potential aspiration pneumonia. Eating in an upright position assists food getting to and staying in the stomach.<br/>Contact Sans Hartzell, 760-519-4006, SansHartzell@gmail.com,
