Doberman Pinscher - Small - Young - Male - Dog - Cajun Gumbo!
Description
Meet Cajun Gumbo from Louisiana! Gumbo is a Katrina survivor. He was one of the first dogs to get out of the state after the hurricane. When Gumbo was rescued he had a wound on his right side by his flank, a puncture wound on his right shoulder blade, a puncture wound inside his right hock, he was heart worm positive and he was very very skinny. Poor boy Gumbo is now healed and almost ready for adoption. Pet Pals is working on some behavior problems. Good grief, is it any wonder after what he has been thru? Gumbo has been thru something in his short 2-3 year life that I hope I never have to experience. This playful boy's face lights up when he makes eye contact. If you startle him and grab his collar real fast, he will snap at you out of fear. It may take a long time for his nerves to settle down. He seems to attach himself to you very fast and wants to please. Gumbo is VERY fearful of water......DUH, no explanation needed. Gumbo LOVES to play ball and enjoyed playing with an 8 year old little girl visiting us. I wouldn't recommend real small children that may startle him. It is unknown how he does around cats. He is housebroken. We forgot to mention that Gumbo is smart, smart, smart! He learned to shake hands in 30 minutes or less!! Please fill out an application.
