Mushu is a handsome, sweet, loving little guy who is 10 years young. He spent all of his 10 years with one family until they became too ill to care for him. While they were devastated to give him up, they knew they couldn’t give him the life he deserved.
Mushu has a crate that he stays in when we are gone. He loves to have a treat and then “kennel up”! When we are at home, he is a velcro dog. He wants to be where we are, preferably curled up next to us. He also loves to curl up in bed with us and stay all night! Toys are a must for him – small balls, tug of war, etc., are things he loves to play with. He does great with other dogs, kids, cats, neighbors, guinea pigs… You name it, he loves it! Due to the transitions he has been through, he will probably need to be on leash in the house until he gets the “lay of the land.” Two or three weeks of this supervision will curb any thoughts he might have about marking.
Mushu has one health concern. There is a swelling or growth on the surface of one eye. This has been evaluated by an eye specialist, who determined Mushu’s vision is not affected and he is not in any pain. The growth will have to be watched and reexamined if it becomes larger. If treatment is required later, it would be done with one or more of several different ointments, using the least amount of medication necessary to control the inflammation.
Mushu is a fantastic dog, and we, his foster family, will be sad to see him go.
