8/09/16 Apothes (aka Hooch) is a
goofy, loveable, sweet boy who always aims to please. He is well
behaved and is very easy going. Apothes' favorite activities are
sleeping and eating. He gets along well with his foster family and all
the dogs at doggy daycare. Apothes does need to wear a diaper 24/7,
but that doesn't slow him down. He would do best with a family who is
home most of the day.

Apothes is doing great!
He gets along well with my female dog and all other dogs at daycare.
He is the sweetest and most well-behaved boy, and he sure does have a
personality! Apothes has two favorite spots in the house, either in
front of the fireplace or on your lap. He enjoys sleeping most of the
day in front of the fireplace. Apothes walks well on leash and sleeps
at night in his crate. He will require somebody who is home most of
the day because he will need to be changed to stay dry. If you are a
good match for Apothes, apply today!

Apothes is a super sweet boy
and a big lap dog. He gets along well with the female boxer in his
foster home. Apothes is also doing well with his crate training.
Everybody at daycare loves him! If you would like to help sponsor the
cost of Apothe's daycare, please consider a donation in his name. He
would also love to find a forever family of his own if you feel you are a
good match for Apothes!

Apothes is doing great in his
foster home! He goes to doggy daycare every day and has made many
friends. While home, Apothes has been working on crate training, so
being comfortable enough to nap in there is a big step for him! This
handsome guy is looking for a special home that will love him forever!

Apothes has been neutered and
is recovering from surgery. He loves his new spot by the fireplace!

Apothes began doggie daycare
and was so tired when he got home, he could barely keep his eyes open
waiting for a treat! This awesome boy is going to make a great
addition to someone's family. Yes, he has special needs - but he also
has more than enough love to make up for the extra care that he requires.
Please don't let his nerve damage scare you off - he is well worth it!

Apothes is now in a temporary
foster home, but is still looking for either his forever home or a longer
term foster. He is doing great with the other six dogs in the home and
is a very loveable guy! Apothes is not a fan of the crate. He
has some urine burns that are being treated and his temporary foster mom is
trying out different options to help him stay clean.

Apothes is in urgent need of a
foster home, or better yet - an adoptive home! His visit at the
University of Pennsylvania revealed that surgery will not correct his
issues. It is an injury to his spine that does not cause him any pain.
Apothes will need some assistance to urinate (a little bladder push) and he
will need to wear a wrap when in the house. He does not have mobility
problems and is a very happy, goofy typical 5 year old boxer. If you
are that special angel for Apothes, please apply today!

We are
still looking for a foster home for Apothes. He was checked by our vet
and we believe he may have a lesion on his spine or possibly a protruding
disc. Apothes is having a neurology consult on Friday and we will need
to find a foster home for him a few days after that. We would hate to
put him in boarding at this point. Ideally, his foster home should be
located in one of our main areas (Long Island, New York City, Scranton, or
Baltimore) so he will have easy access to one of our rescue vets. We
will update his page after the consult.

Apothes is a 5 yr old male boxer who is in need of a new home due to a
change in life circumstances. He previously lived with a female dog
and did well with her. Apothes suffered an injury two years ago and
experiences incontinence as a result. We will have this checked out at
our vet when he is neutered. If you can provide a home for Apothes,
apply today! |
