Description:

Vidian is about 4 ½ months old and 8 lbs. He came to the rescue from a shelter where he was brought in as a stray. It took a few weeks before he was healthy enough to put on our website as available for adoption, but now he’s here! The vet we went to didn’t even want to guess at what mix he was. My best guess is MAYBE rat terrier mixed with other breeds (plural). The vet also said to not quote him on full grown size, but maybe he will top out at around 15(ish) lbs.

Basically, he was a little skinny-mini with some skin issues. Some of the fur still needs to grow back, and there are still a few spots that need to clear up, but he looks a ton better than he did 2 weeks ago. He also went from skin and bones, starving on the streets, to a normal, healthy skinny. I’ll still be feeding him at least 3 meals a day to be putting more weight on him though.

This little guy is always on the go! He has energy to spare! He is a lap dog when he settles down, which (minus bedtime) is about 7% of his day. The rest of the time is playtime! Every person is his friend. He hasn’t met anyone he hasn’t liked. He can be very in your face, literally, and may be a bit much for small children, although it’s all in play.

He’s shy with dogs at first until he knows how they are going to react to him, once he knows they are nice, he likes them too, and LOVES to wrestle. If he finds out they don’t like him, he tries to stay out of their way, while secretly hoping they will decide to be his friend.

Since he’s still a baby, we’re working on manners and house training. He’s getting there.

He is a bit sensitive emotionally and gets a bit nervous with loud voices and reprimands. Although he does respond well to a quick “No.” along with redirection to a positive change in action.

Last Day Dog Rescue now microchips all animals before adoption. Microchips are implanted between the animals shoulder blades and are a permanent form of identification. The microchips are registered to Last Day Dog Rescue with the adopter's info added once adopted. If the animal is ever lost and slips his/her collar/tags the microchip allows the finder to know who to contact if scanned for a microchip. Animals MUST still have a collar with tags on at all times. Per our contract, we take all our animals back if for any reason you can't keep your adopted animal.

Please understand the statements about this animal are based upon the foster home's evaluation of the animal. The animal might behave differently (negatively or positively) in your home. While the animal might be good with the current foster’s dogs, cats, children, etc., it may not be with your animal(s) or children. The animal may be housebroken or litter trained in the home of the foster but may relapse in your home. The animal is represented to the public as it performs in the foster home and any statements made regarding the animal are conditional to that foster home setting. Please understand that statements made regarding this animal are simply overviews and are not guaranteed.

The Petfinder.com system requires that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our animals. Visual breed identification in animals is unreliable so for most of the animals we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each animal as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our animals based on personality, not by breed label.

Thank you for looking through our list of animals needing forever homes and choosing rescue first. We appreciate you stopping by.
