Socrates's Story
Meet Socrates! This pup, along with his mom (Amara) and 10 other siblings, transferred to us from the Chula Vista Animal Care Facility at 6 days of age! <br/>Socrates is a highly intelligent boy, too smart for his own good sometimes! He loves to rough and tumble with his pals and enjoy quiet time with lots of head pats. He has a high prey drive and will do best with dogs that are his size or larger. Socrates will thrive in a home that is experienced with large dogs. Even better if his new home has a fellow large dog that can show him the ropes!<br/><br/>Check out Amara & pups' rescue story here:<br/>https://www.facebook.com/heartofgoldsshelter/posts/pfbid07LVqvxwreznCQSQH2FAkhJhV7bYrU6XqwVUMyvsL9vSaPQYUFQZqHZQnQzgmrU7rl<br/><br/>Health considerations: Socrates was diagnosed with Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency (EPI). This means he does not produce enough digestive enzymes to break down and absorb his food. He is on a lifelong treatment of Pancreplus powder, added 15-20min. before each meal, to assist in breaking down his food for easier nutritional absorption. He requires 3 meals of puppy food per day to maintain a healthy weight. <br/><br/>Additional Note: First two photos taken at 1 year of age. Third photo taken at 6 months of age. Final photo taken at 2 months of age. <br/><br/>Regarding COVID-19 and other contagious illnesses: Please reschedule any visits if you are sick.
