Trouble's Story

As a gentleman of 11 years, he might not be able to see that well anymore- but who needs 20/20 vision when the future ahead is so bright?! <br/><br/>For 16.8 lb Min Pin, Trouble, life as of late, has been pretty glum . His former owner battled Alzheimers, and when their own health began to rapidly deteriorate making it impossible to care for themselves let alone sweet Trouble, Trouble found himself as the only dog among the 40+ cats we have here currently.<br/><br/>As a dog who has spent the entirety of his life in homes as an only-pet, the culture shock was real - but after a few days of cursory yaps, some little trembles here and there, and a few yowly nights , Trouble began to meld right into our little chaotic mix - and things have only gotten smoother for Trouble (literally and figuratively)!<br/><br/>After a long overdue trip to the vet, Trouble got some answers for the fur loss and irritated skin along his back (Color Dilution Alopecia-very common in dogs with blue coats!), and started receiving medicated baths which he loves!<br/><br/>When another dog joined our crowd, Trouble seemed to blossom , and weve learned now that he can get along with most anyone-human (maybe not of young unpredictable variety), cat, and dog alike- so long as they allow him a little time to warm up!<br/><br/>In his time with us, weve also learned that, in true typical Min Pin fashion, he loves to burrow and be as snug as possible - when basking in the sun is not an option, a blanket den is needed. He also loves food and treats, and often times eats it all too fast - a paced feeder would be ideal for him! Trouble loves walks, being outside, and does really well in car rides-when you get his leash and harness out- just try to deny the preciousness of his dainty little paws as he steps into it .<br/><br/>All things considered, Trouble is doing pretty ok for his age! He has the expected lumps and bumps- nothing the vet was too concerned about, the cursed senior dental disease , and like we mentioned, the not-the-best-eyesight . Trouble also had a mystery vestibular event last week (leaning heavily to one side, unable to steady himself and looking a bit dazed) that was a scary for the minute that it lasted, but has had nothing related before or since, and had no neurological symptoms afterwards. Hes also had two recent bloodwork panels that have come back pretty impeccable !<br/><br/>Above all else, weve learned in his time with us, that Trouble is anything but ! A complete misnomer for this laidback senior who deserves nothing but the best and brightest future ahead !<br/><br/>Reach out if youd like to learn more about Trouble or wanna set up a time to meet him!!
