Finnegan's Story
In the last year, this poor boy has been through a lot. Finn’s owners passed away three months apart, leaving him to go home with their adult son. Within that time (around a year), the son developed liver failure and has been in and out of the hospital. Due to the son’s sickness, Finn was not adequately cared for. Around mid-February, Finn was not able to open his jaw, leaving him unable to eat. With the help of MARR and generous family friends, Finn was seen by a vet and with the help of meds, Finn is able to open his mouth and eat fairly normally now. He is now in the care of guardian angles who are doing all they can to care for him. During Finn's first vet visit, it was determined he likely developed Masticatory Myositis or MMM due to muscle loss on his head and jaw. Finn has improved and put some weight on. He has also undergone heartworm treatment which is hard on dogs. Because of the discomfort he's been experiencing, Finn has recently shown signs that he is uncomfortable with certain types of handling, especially around his face and head. We believe pain has played a significant role and finding the right environment to continue his care is incredibly important. Finn has successfully lived with dogs and currently lives with 6 cats. As always, slow and proper introductions will be best for Finn. He would likely not be good with small children. He will do best with someone who has experience with large breeds, rottweiler specifically, would be best. Finn needs security, healthy boundaries, and consistency to become his best self. We have faith in this special boy. Are you his furever angel?
