JUSTIN's Story

07/09/26 14:45 Needs rescue URGENTLY due to displaying FAS ranging from 2-3 in kennel consistently, showing as loud and frustrated barking in kennel whenever entering or nearing the room he resides in. Justin would greatly benefit from rescue placement. CWA 06/17/26 15:59 Justin's wounds from intake date healed beautifully! However, he has chronic mild to moderate ear infections that have not healed with 2 doses of simplera/claro ear medication. Changing rescue status to URGENT to a rescue capable of providing care for his ears, including routine cleanings, veterinary monitoring and other treatments as indicated. 04/19/26 Meet sweet pup Justin! Justin came to our shelter in early April with a bunch of scratches and wounds on his face. This did not stop him from being the gentle soul that he is. Justin loves to go for walks and is great on leash. He does not have a lot of interest in toys but he will sit for a treat. In fact, Justin knows sit, down, and paw! Justin's injuries do appear to be consistent with bite wounds but this sweet boy does not let this get him down. He has shown no reactivity while here at the shelter and has even greeted other dogs nicely through the fence in the yard. Sweet boy Justin is waiting patiently for someone to come in and meet him. Will that person be you? 06/29/26 11:32 What I did today: Today I met two new friends and<br/> took a long walk at the park! I rode perfectly in the car, walked so<br/>nicely next to my friends, gave lots of snuggles and relaxed. Going <br/>back was hard, but I know some wonderful family will come soon to <br/>take me home.<br/> What to know about this dog: <br/>• Gentle, mature dog <br/>• Loose leash walker <br/>• Excellent car rider <br/>• Zero reactivity to animals, bikes, people <br/>Three words to describe me: Calm, Gentle, Affectionate
