Possum is our miracle baby at ten weeks old and a Shepherd Mix! Possum was surrendered to us with his brother Chipmunk because the owner thought he had been stepped on. He appeared to have some neurological issues, and wasn’t breathing very well. We immediately brought him to our amazing vet, who was able to save his life and we cannot thank them enough. We didn’t know if little Possum was going to make it, but he is a fighter and a little miracle pup!! He then went to foster with his brother Chipmunk to be loved and bottle fed – and is now such a strong and playful pup!! Bottle feeding requires a lot of work and our foster and team member, Madeline was amazing with them. You have to feed the puppies every couple hours but it’s the best feeling to see the baby pup grow strong and healthy!
Possum is such a tough cookie – he had a bit of a rough first few weeks of his life, but he is thriving in foster and growing bigger and stronger every day. He is SUCH a bubbly, playful, fearless, perfect puppy. He loves to play tug of war with his brother Chipmunk, and chase his tail. He equally loves a good snooze. He quickly learned that brothers make the best pillows, and found his favourite cuddle spot right next to Chipmunk. He is learning how to “sit” and use pee pee pads like a big boy, and getting smarter every day!! We loved you Possum and so proud of your progress!
