Adopt MIRIAM (MIMI) a Black Pomeranian / Mixed dog in Wyandotte, MI (38384842)

Location:

Wyandotte, MI

Description:

Mimi was picked up by animal control due to a welfare check requested by a concerned citizen. She was passing blood at the time and had a wound on her face. The blood was due to a bladder stone taking up her entire bladder. The wound was due to an abscessed tooth. Both very painful conditions. Thanks to funding provided by Pound Pals Downriver, both issues were resolved. Mimi will be on prescription food for the rest of her life though. Mimi is a sweet girl, but can respond negatively is she feels threatened. For this reason, she would not be a good fit in a home with children. We are looking for a home for her that has a history of experience with dogs as well as strong veterinary record for previous pets. Thank you for your interest in adopting!

All dogs are spayed/neutered, heartworm negative unless otherwise indicated. All are up to date on age appropriate vaccinations and current on heartworm prevention! Additional questions... Does this dog get along with cats? There is almost always an acclimation period when a new pet joins the household. We are happy to suggest a few ways to ease the transition. If one of our dogs is reported to have lived with cats previously, that will be indicated in the dog's description! Does this dog react well to other dogs? No dog loves every other dog, just as humans do not like every other human they meet. A proper introduction (meet and greet) would be required as part of our application process. Is this dog good with children? The better question is how the children have been taught to handle animals. A dog will respond negatively if he/she is not being handled properly. We can offer suggestions on how to teach children to interact with dogs and pay attention to body language. Young children should never be left unsupervised with new dogs. How did this dog end up in a shelter? The top reasons dogs are given up are: Moving without considering the needs of the petsDeath of the owner with no plan in place for the petsPrevious owner did not provide appropriate trainingOwner did not consider the lifespan of a dogOwner did not consider the cost of providing for a dog
