We are so happy we can help this sweet guy out! Why did we pull a puppy?
– Because we have experience with neurological issues with the senior population we serve.
– Because while he may be 10-11 months old on paper, his brain is far beyond that with his issues.
– Because his prognosis is not good and we have a safe foster home for him to live out what time he has left with love and safety and security.
Mars came to us on 2023-11-10. He is such a nice dog , he has no idea he’s sick and thank god he’s not in any pain. We took him to our vet and she feels he has a cerebellar disease. With Mars’s pledge money, we are trying different medications to help make his symptoms better if possible. Mars is happy and truly always has a smile on his face! Welcome to the Serenity family!
Update 2023-12-23: It was with great sadness we had to say goodbye to Mars last night. His neurological issues were causing him to have frequent bouts of aggression and unpredictable behaviors. His foster parents did everything they could to remove as many barriers in his home as possible to keep him and his foster siblings safe.
We are so thankful we were able to get him out of the shelter and into a home with humans that loved and adored him. Mars was happy even right after his bouts of aggression. He had absolutely no idea he was sick and not normal. Mars, you were a great puppy!!! You didn’t deserve to have such a short life and have so many issues that couldn’t be fixed. We hope you are running around, up above, having a blast, with all of our family that have gone before you. You are loved! You will be missed. Rest easy
