Huey

Meet Huey!<br/>Nickname: Huey Lewis and the News<br/>Fun Fact: Huey is perfectly capable of entertaining himself for long stretches of time by gently playing with a tennis ball on his own. He’ll toss it, nudge it, and quietly keep himself amused — a very dignified solo performance.. Huey lets you know exactly when he wants to come back inside — one polite bark for attention and a second if you’re not quick enough to open the door. <br/>Age: Senior<br/>Weight: 70 lbs<br/>Health issues: Huey has some arthritis and mild hip dysplasia<br/>Huey is currently on the following medications and supplements:<br/>Amilextin – given once daily to help manage arthritis pain and support mobility.<br/>Dasuquin with MSM – given once daily to support joint health related to arthritis and mild hip dysplasia.<br/>Benadryl (diphenhydramine) – given twice daily to manage skin sensitivities and allergies.<br/>History: Huey was found as a stray. The owner that his chip came back to said that she had given him away years earlier.<br/>Foster home: Whitewater, WI<br/>Activity level: Low<br/>Friendly with: Adults and respectful older children. The owner to whom the chip came back said she gave him away because he nipped a young child, leaving a mark. We do not know if this was true, or the circumstances, but we disclose this out of an abundance of caution. Huey is also good with other calm, polite dogs and cats. Being an old man, high energy animals who don't respect his space may well be too much.<br/>Sleep style: Huey sleeps in his own bed on the floor, separate from the humans, due to another small dog in the home with poor manners. Occasionally, he may whine at night and want to come upstairs, but he eventually settles and sleeps comfortably in his bed downstairs. <br/>Meals: Huey eats a novel protein dry food diet — 1.5 cups twice daily. Treats are the same food. He enjoys Freezeballs with his food and water frozen in them<br/>Bark-o-meter: 1/10<br/>Shedding meter: 2/10<br/>Fashion: a classic cutaway coat and top hat, or a fedora and cardigan. Think classic '20s menswear.<br/>Walk out song: “Lovely Day" by Bill Withers<br/>Favorite season: Spring — the comfortable temperatures make his exploratory walks more comfortable, and his loyal subjects are more likely to be outside to greet him and admire him. Bonus points for farmers market season, where Huey thoroughly enjoys meeting new people and soaking up attention. <br/>Best feature: Huey’s calm, self-sufficient nature paired with his gentle manners. He’s content to relax near his people or quietly entertain himself without needing constant attention. <br/>Signature Move: Leisurely walks followed by relaxing time near his people — or calmly amusing himself with a tennis ball when the mood strikes. <br/>Loves: Being with his person, snacks, toys, and balls<br/>Bucket list: Learning to use the internet and your credit card. He thinks Amazon would be a super idea! Did you know you can get collars and leashes and cool hats and snacks and balls all in one place?<br/><br/>Huey is a gentle, dignified senior who thrives on routine, calm companionship, and respectful interactions. He forms strong bonds with his people and enjoys being near them, whether on leisurely walks, greeting neighbors, or quietly entertaining himself with a tennis ball. Huey would do best in a peaceful home with adults or older, dog-savvy children who understand his boundaries and appreciate a low-key companion. He does resource guard his food and toys, so you should supervise him with those things. With consistent structure and a little patience, Huey offers unwavering loyalty, excellent manners, and the kind of steady presence that makes a house feel like home. <br/><br/>Neutered<br/>Microchipped<br/>Housebroken<br/>Good on leash, but he likes to meander and assumes you want to follow.<br/>Prefers not to be crated, does spectacularly free roaming the house<br/>UTD on vaccinations<br/>UTD on preventatives<br/><br/>Albert's Dog Lounge is a specialty rescue focusing primarily on senior and special needs dogs.<br/><br/>Our process includes an approved application, reference checks, a homevisit, and then a meet and greet with the dog.
