I’d like to introduce you all to a very special boy. Meet Trooper, a one year old, male German Shepard/Husky mix! Trooper was pulled from Dallas Animal Services last week. We believe he is a Distemper survivor as he has a “twitch” (shown in video below). He is also being treated for an upper respiratory infection (most likely caused from being in the shelter for 5 days). Trooper will be visiting a neurologist soon to confirm the cause of the twitch.
I’ve only fostered Trooper for 1 1/2 days now, but he’s really touched my heart. He LOVES other dogs… he fit immediately into our family (3 children and 3 dogs). He is so much a pack animal. He follows my 3 dogs around so much wanting to be part of the “in” crowd. lol He loves people just as much. I have 3 young boys and he adores them, always soaking up the attention. Trooper is housebroken and knows the “sit” command. He doesn’t like so much to be crated, but will sleep quietly at the end of your bed.
Trooper will need a very special family. One that can overlook his disability… if you can even call it that. He can do anything any other dog can do and is really enjoying life right now!
This is Trooper’s twitch, which he may have the rest of his life…
Trooper LOVES toys!
