Meet Chagall!

In June 2021 I was brought to Apollo by a neighbor that found me in horrible shape. It seems I was dumped on his property. I was dehydrated, starving, couldn’t walk because my pads were raw and I could barely open my eyes. That day the good people at the rescue fed me and gave me water. I also got a soft place to lay down and rest and I felt safe. I went to the vet and the doctor said I was going to be ok but I had an eye condition that would require surgery. Once I got stronger and healthier my surgery day came on Dec. 2021. I did great and can finally see without any pain. 

Now I need to learn some manners and learn to live in a home. I would love to be an only dog in your house until I feel safe and gain some confidence. I love everyone I meet but I would probably do best in a home with older children.   I walk great on a leash although I admit some days I just want to lie down and get belly rubs. I am stubborn about getting back up but I’m working on it. 
I am a great loving guy that needs support, love and consistency. I need to learn many things but I am a fast learner and with treats and love I will be better than I am now. 

At the rescue I’m a favorite and get lots of walks and time in the yard. I started playing with toys that I was scared of a few months ago. I have been crated and did pretty good while recovering but I would not like to be in one for long periods of time. A house with a yard I can sun bathe would be amazing. If you think I can be a good fit in your home please give me a chance.  I am all healed from my entropian surgery, neutered and up to date on my vaccines.
