Adoptable: Abu

Apply to Adopt Me!

Gender: Male

Breed: Terrier mix

Weight: 45 lbs

Personality: Mellow, low maintenance in the home and cuddly!

Education: Good with bathroom and working on leash training when overstimulated

Favorite Activities: Cuddles, naps, treats (big foodie), suntanning, physical touch, soft pillows and blankets (anything soft for his arthritis)

Looking for: Abu would thrive in a home as the only dog, older kids, a very mellow environment and with someone who will give him the amount of attention he deserves. Abu can’t be left alone (he gets curious and destructive) so will need to be in a crate if you need to leave the house. He doesn’t like loud or unexpected noises and likes things to be very calm with low uncertainly to match his chill vibe.

Special needs: On medication (Galliprant 30mg, dasuquin joint supplement, omega3 fish oil, gabapentin). He recently got his front right leg amputated and has arthritis in all of his other legs so we’re working on strengthening them without overdoing it! He’s still the same good boy. He also recently started a vegetarian dog kibble to try and get his allergies under control so that he doesn’t have to go to the vet every 6 weeks for an allergy shot.

Adoption Fee: $ 150

Pawtner-in-crime to your Alladin!

Hi friends! I am Abu! I am not a monkey but an equally fun loving dog and will help you through life’s adventures! I am a 4 year old, 45 lb, neutered male Terrier mix. I was part of the Tijuana shopping cart hoarding case rescue, and you can check the story out on IG. I have been at an amazing foster home since then and mastered bathroom and leash manners. However, I do have leash reactivity and need to work on it with positive reinforcement.

My front leg was amputated which doesn’t stop me from playing but I am happier with shorter walks and pain medication. On medication (Galliprant 30mg, dasuquin joint supplement, omega3 fish oil, gabapentin). I also recently started a vegetarian dog kibble to try and get my allergies under control so that he doesn’t have to go to the vet every 6 weeks for an allergy shot.

My foster mama can vouch for the fact that I am super sweet and cuddly. I am easy going and low maintenance guy who loves to nap and snuggle. My love language is touch and I want to just snuggle all the time. Playing with other dogs get me very excited! I loved to play with my foster brother when I had one, but will also gladly cuddle on the couch and watch a movie. With kids, I am more comfortable with older ones.

I would do best in a house that is mellow and with not a lot of unpredictability. I am not one for long runs or hikes because of my leg but I would be an ace at napping and short walks, and Netflix and chilling. I do fine being alone and resting in my crate but would love to sleep next to you if you are home. I would be happiest as an only pet and soaker of all the attention, but social playdates would be nice too. 

My adoption fee is $150 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip. If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/
