Pappas (URGENT)'s Story

**Pappas is one of our longest residents and has been in our rescue over TWO years. Transport is available anywhere within the continental US for serious adopters.**<br/><br/>Pappas has two hearts and it frankly shows in the amount of love this boy has to give. The first heart is the one you would expect within his body, and the other is the cutest little pattern on the side of his chest. Pappas is a sweetheart who adores just about every human he has ever met. He likes to cuddle and will lay at your feet for hours while you work or watch TV. <br/><br/>Check out Pappas' video playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVb0fq1O6Cwkme5a9p_jT7SSnVtisoWi4<br/><br/>Pappas is crate-trained and knows commands such as sit, lay down, and stay. He is also trained to stay on his bed when guests first enter the home! Pappas is house-trained and is generally not destructive with anything except his stuffed toys. Pappas previously participated in shelter playgroups for gentle play. Unfortunately, due to an incident while he was recovering from surgery, Pappas needs very slow introductions to new dog friends so that he can feel safe. Pappas is not recommended to live with cats or small dogs due to prey drive. <br/><br/>Pappas came into Better World Rescue from Stockton Shelter, where he was saved within 2 minutes of his euthanasia deadline. He was almost a goner simply because he had a mass on his rear end. Thankfully our veterinarian has removed the mass with good margins and no further treatment is expected. His butt is looking good as new! Pappas has also had a very rough life and was a frequent flyer overall at Stockton Shelter. He had an FHO surgery and knee surgery due to both poor living situations and untreated traumatic injury prior to rescue. He walks a little funny but the surgery has greatly reduced his previous pain from these injuries. <br/><br/>Pappas is microchipped, neutered, and up-to-date on vaccinations. All Better World Rescue dogs qualify for private and/or group training at no additional cost to help ensure a successful adoption. <br/><br/>To meet Pappas, fill out our short adoption application: www.betterworldrescue.org/adoption-application Once an application is filled out, our volunteers will reach out to you within one business day to answer any questions and schedule a meet and greet.
