Biography: Daniel came to us from Caddo Parish Animal Services. He was an owner-surrender due to frequent urinating in the home. What we suspected and what our vet determined is that he had a severe urinary tract infection... so bad that he was urinating blood. He was also drooling quite a bit when we picked him up. We suspected he had pain in his mouth due to needing a dental and the vet determined that he indeed needed a dental. They said he was one of the worst cases they’ve ever seen. He had 12 teeth extracted and his mouth was heavily infected. What’s sad is he definitely was groomed... but they did little else medically to help this guy before dumping him at animal control. Typically, we try to keep our emotions out of the write-ups on some of the situations that we see... but with this case, it is hard to do. Daniel deserves better than someone who will pay for him to look good on the outside, but not give crap what’s going on with him medically... allowing him to be in pain for who knows how long. Anyway, all of his issues have been addressed and he is now also neutered and UTD on all vaccinations, etc. He is now ready for a new life with an adopter who will love and cherish him just like he should be. Daniel does well in a kennel and walks well on a leash. He’s quiet and sweet and he’s going to make someone very happy.
**IMPORTANT NOTES**
*All of our adoptable dogs are small, and they are never to be left outside alone, ever! We only rehome our dogs to adopters that plan to have them as inside dogs and part of the family! We do allow adopters with doggie doors, provided there is SECURE fencing. There is no exception to this rule!
*NO SMALL CHILDREN!! As with almost all the dogs at NR2R, young children or a very active household is not recommended. Many of our dogs come to us BECAUSE of small children, thus we do not rehome our dogs to homes with babies or young children. KEEP THIS IN MIND IF YOU HAVE VISITING GRANDCHILDREN AS WELL! Even if the children are older, it would depend on the child AND the parent or parents.
*HOUSETRAINING: We do NOT guarantee that any of our adoptable dogs are housetrained. While most should be easily trained, keep in mind that they live in a rescue where they have access to the outdoors all day and are inside at night. Even if they were surrendered to us as housetrained, it doesn’t mean they will automatically be housetrained in your home. Housetraining them should be easy in the right home with time, patience, and consistency.
*We do not guarantee the age, health or temperament of any of the dogs we rehome. Many of the dogs we take in come from animal control and rarely do we have histories and even when we do, many times the histories are inaccurate.
*Only adopters with a responsible dog ownership history and excellent vet reference need apply. If you bring this pet into your heart and home, you will receive in return many years of love, companionship, and loyalty. That’s our guarantee.
Other notes: This pet is available for adoption through Ninna’s Road to Rescue, Benton, La. We are 501c3 non-profit organization. Our mission is to rescue small-breed dogs and a handful of cats and to re-home them into RESPONSIBLE and CARING forever homes. DOG APPLICATION LINK: http://www.roadtorescuela.org/dog-application
Time may be of the essence if you are looking to adopt a specific animal. We do not reserve animals, unless and until we have approved your application, provided the animal is still available at the time we receive your application. The first APPROVED application we receive will be considered. We are NOT a first come, first serve rescue!! We adopt our rescues out to the RIGHT home, not just A home. Only responsible pet owners need apply.
Applying to adopt does NOT commit you to the adoption until you’ve met the pet (unless you already have and know you want to adopt the pet).
CONTACT: Our adoptable pets are updated regularly, but if you want to check the availability of a pet... OR still have questions AFTER reading this profile, message us via our Facebook page. Please indicate the name when communicating with us.
