Romeo's Story

***Special Needs Dog***<br/>Romeo is a stunning, sweet, goofy boy with luscious jowls and the most soulful eyes you've ever seen. True to his name, this boy is 100 percent pure LOVER. He loves to be snuggled and pet. Despite his young age, Romeo is a gentle boy with medium energy. He has tested well with small dogs, big dogs (although he doesn't seem to like huskies), kids, and even ignores cats. He came to us quite underweight and still needs to gain some more - he should probably be around 115 or 120. Sadly, Romeo has some neurological problems, and we are still figuring out what they are. He's a bit wobbly, quite clumsy, and falls down here and there. HHR is covering all the costs of his treatment while a complete diagnosis and treatment plan is being developed, so right now we are looking for a dedicated foster or foster-to-adopt.<br/><br/>Romeo is being seen and treated by the top neurologist at UC Davis, and his MRI showed that it may just be a treatable infection. However, he will need to be monitored and have follow-up tests to make sure the infection has cleared, and, at this point, we don't know how much of his symptoms can be ameliorated. He is truly a happy happy boy though and to anyone who didn't know him, they would just think he's clumsy. His condition is no way life threatening, but it will need to be managed (no steep stairs or rough play for this boy).<br/><br/>Romeo is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on his vaccines.
