About Mickey

Adoption Fee: $65
Pit Bull / Lab
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Male

Mickey is about 3.5 years old, neutered, up to date on his shots, and has an amazing temperament. We believe he is a pit bull mix. He loves to cuddle and lay in your lap as much as he loves to run his 'zoomies' and play, he does well with other dogs and cats, and has no behavioral issues. He is very smart and could definitely be trained well by the right person, though at the moment all he knows is sit, stay, shake, and down. We took Mickey in as a favor to a friend who was going through a bad divorce and move and could not care for him. This friend was then unable return and get him. We love Mickey and have tried to care for him, but we discovered that he has Lyme disease and ehrlichiosis, as well as very sensitive skin and stomach issues, several badly healed broken nails, and a chipped tooth. We are devastated at the thought of losing him, but simply can not afford the cost of a special needs dog, and due to our lifestyle we can not give him the attention or life he deserves. Mickey would do best in a home with no more than one other dog and a fenced in yard. He needs a lot of time to run around and a lot of space to call his own to be comfortable. We are terrified that no one will give him a chance just because he's got special needs. He has so much love to give, and he is such an amazing dog. Please email us for more information on Mickey!
