Shelter Notes:
“Once in the play yard Sketcher quickly perked up with a relaxed demeanor and began to exchange greetings. Sketcher roamed the yard for some time sniffing and marking various locations appearing interested in the environment. Sketcher continued to socialize and explore the yard with some of the others in the yard. Sketcher remained social in the calm yard but did not engage in play. Sketcher hesitantly approached the handler to solicit brief petting appearing more interested in exploring the yard. Sketcher maintained a calm social demeanor during his time in the play yard.”

Medical notes are available here.
Sketcher can be adopted by someone from the general public with a medical waiver. Please share this sweet dog’s plight with approved rescue organizations, friends, family and social media contacts. Time is running out.
