Rex's Story

Meet Rex! <br/>Rex is a 312-year-old neutered German Shepherd currently enjoying life in a loving foster home. This handsome 72–74 lb boy was born with congenital megaesophagus, a lifelong condition that requires special care at mealtimes and twice-daily medication.<br/><br/>Don’t let his medical needs fool you—Rex is an incredibly sweet, intelligent, well-behaved boy with an amazing sense of humor! He is house trained, doesn’t need to be crated when left alone, rides beautifully in the car, and loves playing games like Hide & Seek with his people and toys. He thrives on attention and companionship and has so much love to give.<br/>Rex’s condition is manageable with the right routine, including several small meals each day served in an elevated position. He cannot safely swim, so his ideal home will have no ponds, lakes, or other bodies of water. He would also do best as the only pet in the home, without small children, and with a securely fenced yard.<br/><br/>Rex is looking for a dedicated adopter who understands his special needs and can provide the consistency, companionship, and care he deserves. In return, he’ll give you unwavering loyalty, endless laughs, and a truly special bond. <br/><br/>Could you be the person Rex has been waiting for? <br/><br/>• Around 3.5 years old<br/>• Currently 74 lbs<br/>• Good with kids<br/>• Adoption fee: $175 <br/><br/>This dog is in foster. Please email dogs@adoptapetfenton.com to schedule an appointment. Include information about your family and pets, what you are looking for in a canine companion, how you plan to exercise and train this dog, and why this specific dog seems like a good fit for your family. We offer same-day adoptions, do not place holds, and work on a first-come, first-served basis to ensure the best fit for both the dog and adopter.<br/><br/>Adoption fees include spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccines, deworming, preventatives, heartworm testing (if age-appropriate), microchip, and dental cleaning if needed.
