This little ball of fluff is Romeo and he is one of the most fun and playful dogs we have ever met! Romeo has a very sad story. He was found on the streets of Bakersfield all alone and most likely abandoned. He was completely matted, filthy, flea infested, and limping on a back leg. An independent rescuer we work with was able to get him to safety and reached out to us to see if we could take him in to our foundation and we said yes! Romeo was transported to us in Santa Monica and we took him straight to our orthopedic specialist who took xrays and told us that he needed surgery immediately that day. His leg had a very bad break and they started the surgery right away. This little guy was such a trooper and healed easily and quickly! He is now available for adoption. We are looking for a home for him with another playful dog and owners that are not gone long hours during the day. A home with a safe and secure yard would be ideal as he loves running around with his friends! Romeo is an approx 3 year old, 12lb, male, Maltipoo mix who is such a little love despite all that he has been through. If you are looking for a fun, playful, and good natured dog...then Romeo is the pup for you! Romeo is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped.
