Needs to have a fenced environment and would benefit from obedience training.
Finch is the sweetest guy - he recently came to us from a shelter as a stray. He is social and friendly. He's been examined and has 2 leg fractures - our vet partner feels they're suspicious. A bone biopsy was done and has been sent out. We should hear some news next week, please keep him in your thoughts. He is also being treated for a UTI, fleas, anemia, and ear and skin infections. He is going to a very skilled foster who will care for him until we hear more on his leg. Stay tuned for more.
Hi! Finch here, I have so many wonderful things to share with the world about my
wonderful life! My foster mom wrote this about me and I think it says it all. Enjoy reading all about me!
Finch's personality is really blossoming. He’s puppy like when he’s upright and awake (he still snoozes quite a bit). Finch needs something in his mouth when he gets excited, or he will grab the hem of your pj’s, shorts, shirt, or “hold your hand” He loves to carry or drag anything around including a laundry basket & sheets! He likes toys & tennis balls. He will romp around & push the tennis ball with his paws…it’s adorable! He has mastered the magnetic screen door, which is left open all of the time. He puts half his body inside & half outside: could be his head, could be his rear end, could be just his nose peeking out of the screen! Finch could be an only dog, but would thrive with another dog that likes the occasional tussle or a calm friend would work too. Finch is doing the stairs easily. His foster mom is working on which feeding position is most comfortable for him, as he usually lays down to eat, but at times she sets it up higher for him. Finch takes his medications easily. He coat is looking good & his fur is coming in nicely...he is so handsome! His ears are adorable, they are hard to describe when he pushes them back! He likes to chew bones, antler & nubby plastic ones, but he will also chew on whatever is near his face sometimes: an outside pot, shrub branch, cement bench, landscaping rocks. He will give those objects up easily. He has still had a few accidents in the house, but foster mom says it’s her fault & that with a routine schedule, he does well. He starts off sleeping in the kitchen on the dog bed at night or the living room, but will eventually come into the bedroom to sleep in one of the dog beds. Finch needs assistance getting in & out of the car, but has no difficulty jumping onto the couch. He LOVES a belly rub. He is super lovable and gets on his hind legs to place his front paw on you to get closer. He thinks he’s a lapdog & will climb into your lap to enjoy a neck massage.
