Description
Dog Breed: Husky / Siberian Husky. Age: 3 years Size: 40 lbs (should be closer to 50 lbs) Estimated breed: Husky Lives with: People Perfect home: No children under 10 due to typical young pup mouthiness and jumpiness. Securely fenced-in yard or ability to keep on leash - in true husky fashion, he's a talented escape artisit! Beautiful Mario was saved from an overcrowded shelter in Maryland, when his time was up and he found himself euthanasia-listed only due to a lack of space. On top of being extremely emaciated at only 35 lbs with every rib sticking out, Mario showed signs of neurological challenges, which is beyond the shelter’s limited ability to care for. We had him assessed by our neurologist, who confirmed Mario’s symptoms are consistent with cerebellar ataxia, a disorder that affects the cerebellum region of the brain. The effects on Mario’s day-to-day life are minimal and do not cause him any pain, and does not require any additional medical treatment! Despite being three years old, many of his mannerisms and development milestones are much closer to that of a young puppy. He strives to please his people and is very food-motivated, making teaching him fun! With consistency and a patient handler, Mario thrives just like any other dog. Here's what his temporary fosters have to say about Mario: "Mario is doing great! We can tell he feels safe, as he sleeps well in his kennel with his belly up, snoring contentedly, and gets the zoomies all the time. Mario is sweet, good natured, and friendly meeting new people. He hasn't figured out toys yet and is still awkward when taking treats, almost like he hasn't had much practice. He loves affection from his people and is super snuggly!"
