Tommy is a timid but sweet dog who recently came to the rescue from a neighboring county. He seems to be housebroken, though it's tough to confirm in the shelter environment. While he walks well on a leash, Tommy displays some shyness, especially when hands approach him. He tends to drop to the ground when someone raises a hand to pet him, likely due to past experiences. With time and patience, he will likely learn that friendly hands bring affection, not fear. Tommy has a gentle personality and some existing scars on his face, which suggest he may have had a tough past. Currently heartworm positive, he can go home on a foster-to-adopt plan, allowing time for bonding as he receives treatment from our dedicated medical team. Tommy is neutered, microchipped, and updated on core vaccines, ready to start his new chapter. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
