Meet lucas
Lucas came to us with mom and siblings. When he was about 8 weeks old, we noticed some funny behavior where he was walking into walls and acting very lethargic. Without surgery, Lucas would not have lived past his second birthday. With surgery, he would have a normal life with the exception of a daily dose of omeprazole (over-the-counter heartburn treatment).
In January of 2022, the surgery was performed at Texas A&M University and was a complete success. He has received a clean bill of health at every check-up since and, in fact, the veterinarians say he could benefit from losing a few pounds!
Lucas is now 3 years old and is the happiest boy he can be. He attends regular training sessions and is very comfortable in public settings. He walks on the leash without pulling, sits on command, and has no problems meeting other dogs or strangers. Lucas absolutely loves playing with other dogs and knows to respect their boundaries. From what we have seen, he has no issues with cats, but (as anyone will tell you) that depends more on the cat than the dog!
Lucas is neutered, microchipped, and (as mentioned) has no other medical issues except for his daily medicine. Lucas eats about 2.5 cups of food per day. This may need to be adjusted up or down now that he is considered an adult dog.
Lucas definitely had an interesting start to his life and now he deserves a chance for a forever home!
