About Trooper

Adoption Fee: $175
Schnauzer / Lhasa Apso
Age: Senior
Sex: Male

Trooper is a very scared Schnauzer/ Lhasa Apso mix boy who was dumped at a high kill shelter by his family. He was with them his whole life, and then at age 11, they got rid of him like garbage. He waited for his family to come back for him, but no one ever came. When we heard about him, he only had until close of business to live. We were able to get a volunteer out to save him with literally no time to spare. Trooper was terrified in the shelter, even though he got along well with his cellmates. Our volunteer said he cried the entire car ride home. Poor little guy! We had him examined by our vet, and despite his age, he is a healthy boy. He's fully vaccinated, neutered and chipped. We had his teeth cleaned and had him groomed as well. The fur around his eyes was so matted that it destroyed and infected the skin beneath it. His foster mom kept it clean with some antibiotic ointment, and now it's as good as new! Trooper needs an experienced dog owner who is willing to be patient while Trooper learns to feel safe in his new home. Once he warms up to you, he is very sweet and loving, although he doesn't like to be woken up too early! Trooper is great with other small dogs. Would you like to give this sweet boy the home he deserves? Small dogs live until their mid to late teens, so Trooper has a lot of years and a lot of love to give. Email [email protected] if you'd like to meet him. Thanks for sharing! We're only adopting out to the Southern California area. Adoption donation $175
