My story
Meet your magical sidekick!
‘Ello there! My name is Ron. Just like Harry Potter’s loyal, loving bestie, I’m ready to be your sidekick. I’m a 3-year-old, 40-pound Labrador retriever mix. I was rescued from Azkaban… ahem, I mean the heartbreaking conditions of ESLR in Ensenada. It took more than a little magic to get me out and it’s going to take a bit more spellwork until I’m a fully healthy fella. I’m so excited to turn the page and find my furever family!
I’m searching for a loving witch, wizard, or muggle who will foster to adopt me. I have Cerebellar Hypoplasia, Meningoencephalitis (currently under going chemo treatment to try and improve my condition), and a possible seizure disorder. Due to the CH, my hind legs are weak which impacts things such as commands requiring "sit" and jumping onto couches. I’m taking Phenobarbital (~$15.00 a month) and Prednisone (~$7.00 per month). I’m partially blind and do not get vaccines at this time, including oral flea/tick preventatives. Trust me, I know this sounds like a lot, but I pawmise that I’m an easy-going guy who just wants to be loved! I’ve gone through a lot in my little life and I’m so hopeful for a fresh start at Hogwarts… I mean, a home with you!
When I’m not brushing up on my Quidditch skills or studying Herbology, you can find me chewing on squeaky toys or bones. I LOVE mealtime and do the cutest hop around the house. I also enjoy exploring around in circles and getting a lay of the land. I get along well with other dogs and currently have foster siblings. I have had a couple of incidents where I’ve nipped out of sheer excitement or for attention(non-aggressive, I swear!) This only happened when I was first in my foster home. Since then, my foster fam has been able to wipe my eyes, paws, and hand-feed me treats without any issues.
I’m a well-behaved boy who benefits from a steady routine. I’m very good with my crate, bathroom, and leash training. I need frequent trips outside and may take a little time to acclimate to my new environment but practice makes pawfect!
What I need is someone who will be my rock… my Sorcerer’s Stone, some might say. I would do best in a home that can provide me with routine and stability. I’m not necessarily the most affectionate or high-energy pooch, but I’m a great companion who is easy to be around. I have been through a lot and I’m a total trooper. I hope that I’ll charm you and that you can work your magic on me as well!
