Gilligan Mixed Breed Clinton Township, MI

Gilligan was abandoned at a boat ramp / park. On the 4th day after being dumped, he was hit by a vehicle and suffered severe wounds. He was rescued a few days later, his wounds were infected, and maggot infested. He was then hospitalized over a week for wound care, followed by transferring to a specialty hospital for surgical repair from a boarded surgeon. His wounds were closed and unfortunately he had lost blood flow to part of his tail, resulting in a partial amputation.

Throughout all of this, he was calm, kind, and appreciative of any attention offered.

Gilligan is gentle and loves people. He has met many people, including children during his recovery in foster. All he really wants is to follow you around, sit on your feet, or roll over for belly rubs.

He's crate trained, and has never had an accident.

A home with a fence would be ideal, as he is a little too interested in squirrels, bunnies, and deer.

Becoming an indoor pet has been his dream come true. He doesn't appreciate being outside for long unless you're with him! He loves living indoors with people.

At this time, we don't recommend a home with other pets. He's met a couple of dogs that he did very well with, but he's still learning how to be a dog and he's just not ready to share his people. His new home needs to be cat free.

Gilligan would be happy with a family, or a single person, he loves everyone's love and attention. He is not an energetic guy. He's happy doing what you're doing!
