He’ll add light, laughter, and love!
Hi, friends! My name is Gene, and I’m a 2-year-old Terrier Mix neutered male, weighing in at 10 pounds. I’ve come all the way from La Mesa, where I was hit by a car. Thankfully, TAP rescued me just in time and has helped me repair my perforated intestines and broken femur. Now, I’m as good as new and am mastering my potty-training while I wait for my furever home!
My foster mama says that I’m the definition of a pup with a lot of love to give! All I want to do is show and give someone an endless amount of love, whether that be through playtime or snuggles. I’m the epitome of a loyal dog, and I promise you that I will bond with you for life and never leave your side!
I’m a high-energy kind of guy, and my favorite activities include playing with soft toys and balls, going on long walk to sniff everything, and getting love and pets. While I love my humans, I do tend to get very anxious with new people and will sometimes growl out of fear for myself. However, once I’m familiar with someone, I’m energetic and friendly, and will give lots of kisses. I have started Prozac (~$10.00 a month, depending on market value and when purchased) to help manage my anxiety which has helped me settle when you leave. Having my foster dog’s sibling around also helps me feel better.
I am dog-friendly and will probably do best in a home with another doggie sibling to help with my anxiety. I have not spent much time around kiddos but I think I would do fine.
I would fit in an amazing home full of love and cuddle, and who patiently help me be the best doggo ever! So, do we sound like a match? If so, my adoption fee is $300 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip.
