Jimmy

Jimmy is the kind of dog that makes you question every other dog youve ever met.<br/><br/>Like... why arent they all this easy?<br/><br/>He ended up at the shelter as a stray in Lancaster, with a microchip registered to an address in Los Angeles, but no one came for him. We were able to pull him on a medical waiver, and hell officially be available once his hold is up on April 1.<br/><br/>Since getting out, he has been nothing short of... suspiciously perfect.<br/><br/>Jimmy is basically a living stuffed animal. Soft, sweet, and just quietly thrilled to be included in whatever youre doing. He still has a little pep in his step, loves a walk, and then is immediately ready to be back on the couch like hes been paying rent there for years.<br/><br/>Hes great with other dogs. Totally fine with cats. Loves people. No weird behavior. No drama. No he just needs time to decompress. Hes already decompressed. Hes good.<br/><br/>At the vet, we did bloodwork, fecal, and a urinalysis just to cover our bases, and everything came back exactly how wed hope. He does have a very mild heart murmur, but its not something our vet is concerned about.<br/><br/>When we got him, his nails were so overgrown they were starting to curl inward, and his coat was a mess. Hes already had a cleanup (thank you to his foster), and hell be getting a proper groom soon so he can fully step into his new life.<br/><br/>The shelter labeled him as a Shih Tzu, but were fairly confident hes more of a Havanese/Maltese mix. Either way, hes a very good decision.<br/><br/>If youre looking for a dog that just... works, Jimmy is your guy.<br/><br/><br/>Real Good Rescue is a foster-based rescue in Los Angeles, CA.<br/>Learn more at www.realgood.dog
