About Bam Bam (hospice)

Distance: 1,370 Miles
We are looking for a hospice foster or adopter for this little guy. Bam Bam's previous owner knew he had some medical issues but could not afford his care so she decided to turn him into the shelter. We ended up taking him and got him checked out right away. Our vet estimated that Bam Bam is about 14 to 15 years old. He does not hear well and is almost fully blind. Unfortunately, we also found out he has an enlarged heart and a collapsing trachea. He started on heart medications and is doing well on them. Our vet thinks he could make it another year or two with proper care. Since he can't see/hear well, he is stressed in new homes and it takes him some time to learn a new environment. We want him to find one final, stable home he can adjust to and live out the rest of his days. We would love for someone to spoil him for the remaining time he has left! Bam Bam is a small boy at only 5lbs. He loves sunbathing and exploring, but sometimes needs help finding his way back to the house. He cannot be left outside alone. Bam Bam lives for food and takes his meds easily with his meals. He is a sweet boy, never shown any aggression or tried to bite anyone. He gets along with other dogs and cats and actually likes having another dog he can follow around as his "guide." But, we don't think large or hyper dogs would be good for him since he is so small. If you can open your heart and home to help Bam Bam, please submit an application on our website at www.dominoeffectanimalrescue.org
