Noodle is ready for his forever home!
We’re looking for a very special family for this incredible little guy! We estimate Noodle is about 9 months old, and he’s been with us since May, when we rescued him from the shelter as a stray.
Noodle is a one-of-a-kind puppy who will always be small and baby-like. He loves being held, melts right into your arms, and is the sweetest little snuggle buddy. He loves everyone he meets and gets along wonderfully with other dogs. His favorite pastime at the moment is being the team mascot at trivia night!
Noodle was labeled rescue-only at the shelter because of severe deformities in both knees and ankles that left his legs twisted out of alignment. He underwent corrective surgery at UC Davis Veterinary Hospital and has spent the past few months recovering. He’s now in physical therapy and working on getting stronger.
Noodle will never have a perfectly typical gait, and a genital deformity may make potty training more challenging. But caring for him is a joy, and his medical needs don’t take away from the wonderful puppy he is.
Noodle has already overcome so much. Now, he deserves a family who will embrace his differences, celebrate his progress, and give him all the love and snuggles he could ever want. He's neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.
