PLEASE READ - MANY OF YOUR QUESTIONS MAY BE ANSWERED BY THE BIO OR OUR WEBSITE: ****IF YOU ARE INTERESTED**** Visit our website to complete an adoption application: www.nakedkissesdogrescue.org/adoption. Linus's bio page: www.nakedkissesdogrescue.org/linus Handsome boy, Linus, is such a super sweet gentleman. He's 8.9lbs, and 9yrs old. We took him to our vet to get him checked out, and he was a little nervous but very well behaved. We had a CBC chem blood panel done (we do this for all incoming rescues aged 9+) and his bloodwork was perfect. He has cataracts that don't seem to greatly affect his vision with the exception of low light situations, like at night. It's really not noticeable though. Our vet detected a grade 4 heart murmur but no medication is necessary since he displays no physical symptoms of heart issues. Linus has pyorrhea in his mouth (periodontal disease) from having his dental care neglected for so long. He is getting a dental on Friday (8/16), and as most hairless Cresteds, will need continued oral care and regular dentals to maintain a healthy smile. Linus can't really hear anything, but it doesn't affect his sweet personality. He rides well in the car, and he walks like a little slice of heaven on the leash. Linus would love a home with at least one other confident dog. He likes to snuggle with other dogs and gets along with all the dogs in his foster home. He has not been cat tested. He enjoys going for walks anytime you want to go, and he loves to relax in his dog bed. He's very calm and refined, but shows signs of wanting to play with one of the other dogs in his foster home. He does NOT like being crated and will cry and cry, therefore he would not be a good fit for an apartment or condo. Linus will be available for adoption after his evaluation period is complete (2/25). He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and heartworm negative. He seems housetrained and has not had any accidents. He is allowed outside every few hours, and a consistent schedule will be necessary to ensure no accidents happen. Linus is fostered in Parrish, FL, and his adoption fee is $350.
