In the shelter’s words

~~Although we do our very best to make sure your new pup is in tiptop health before adoption, things could drastically change a month later. Since we don’t have a long health history of your adopted dog, we can only treat the pet for whatever symptoms present during the initial exam and follow up exams.~ Health: ***** No obvious health issues found during vet exam ***** Temperament: Looking for a 17-pound bundle of joy with a built-in entertainment system? Meet Slinky, a 4-year-old male throwback Pomeranian who is equal parts handsome, hilarious, and huggable! Slinky absolutely loves toys and is perfectly happy entertaining himself—as long as his toy supply is fully stocked. He’s also a big fan of fetch, so he’s always ready for a game of “throw it, I’ll get it, now do it again.” Despite being a Pomeranian, Slinky is basically a canine ninja: he rarely barks, walks beautifully on a leash, and gets along wonderfully with people and other dogs. He’s also crate trained and ready to bring his joyful personality to a forever family. His one funny little quirk? Slinky is not convinced that stairs are trustworthy—especially slippery hardwood stairs. He’s getting braver every day, but he may need a little encouragement while he negotiates this terrifying architectural feature. Slinky would make a fantastic adventure buddy, walking companion, fetch champion, and full-time joy dispenser. He’s ready to find his forever home! -- Where did he come from: Sadly he was a stray at the Fort Worth Animal Shelter Adoption: ***** $800.00 ***** Weight: 17.0 lbs.
