Chico's Story
Name: Chico<br/><br/>Age: 5 yrs, 11 mos (DOB 3/5/20)<br/><br/>Weight: About 115 lbs<br/><br/>Likes/Favorite Activities:<br/><br/>· Belly Rubs<br/><br/>· Treats<br/><br/>· Meals<br/><br/>· Being near people<br/><br/>· ATTENTION!<br/><br/>· Nibbling on stuffed toys<br/><br/>· Smiling<br/><br/>· Talking (barking)<br/><br/>Dislikes: None<br/><br/>Personality/Temperament: VERY fun loving and super sweet. Listens well! VERY Happy boy!<br/><br/>Energy Level: Low-Moderate (rather typical for a dog his age)<br/><br/>Favorite Treat(s): ANY, he isn’t picky!<br/><br/>Eating Schedule: Twice per day (approx. 7 am & 6 pm). Eats about 2 cups of dry food at each meal<br/><br/>He is good with our dogs and was good with our last cat. He has also been very good with the kids he has been around (kids of all ages). <br/><br/>He is housetrained with no accidents. He goes to the door and barks if he has to go out. However, we tend to let our pups out more often than “normal” due to our other pups (not due to Chico!) Sometimes, he refuses to go out if he doesn’t have to go.<br/><br/>Crate Trained: Never used one with him. Was never needed.<br/><br/>Challenges: Honestly none that we have identified yet. He did show his teeth once, but that only happened when he had a baby bunny in the yard. <br/><br/>Medical Issues: His ears tend to get dirty often and bother him. We clean them each morning and sometimes have to put drops in them (Mometazole 15g) when he seems to be shaking his head excessively. He will chew at his paws so he takes Apoquel daily for that (approx $100 monthly). He is on Simparaca Trio monthly for flea/tick/heartworm prevention. He also has had 2 surgeries - FHO and TPLO, so he does require glucosamine supplements... he also requires carpet - he does not feel safe walking on other surfaces.<br/><br/>While we do not know much about his history prior to coming to live with his foster family (May 2025), Chico is just a very happy boy that has a great demeanor and LOVES to be petted! Literally everyone that has met him LOVES him!!<br/><br/>Apply at chirp.me/LDR
