Please read Frito's entire profile before submitting questions or an application.
Frito is an adorable young boy that's playful, lovable and funny who is seeking a very special home He's physically healthy and doing well now after a harrowing experience in his short life. He was turned into a shelter thinking he was hit by a car. We got him out and straight to a vet for xrays that showed a BB or Pellet lodged in his rear end area. Once he got to us, he was pawing at his mouth, especially after drinking so we had xrays done of his head. That's when we discovered he had some fractured teeth on the side where he had a scab above one of his eyes. Our vet removed 3 top front small teeth that were fractured and the pulp was good on the upper and lower canine teeth so they smoothed those fractures and sealed them It appears he received some sort of trauma from impact to his little head. We don't know what he was like before and his age is guessed to be over 1 year and under 2 years but he plays more like a 6 month old. This could be from his traumatic head injury and he may or may not move past it. There is no way to tell. He just may truly be forever puppy like. He is not 100% potty trained but likes going outside so just needs to be taken out frequently.
He can be afraid of new people initially but with some proper time, handling and patience, he should grow to love you as much as he does his foster Mom
