About Linus

Meet Linus, one of the adorable Trailer Park Pups! This little guy is just 12 weeks old and has come a long way since being rescued. He and his siblings were suffering from severe scabies and dry skin, but thanks to some loving care, they're thriving. All the pups are now vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and treated for scabies, with their fur beginning to grow back beautifully. Linus is a playful baby who loves to be cuddled. He’s starting to discover the joys of human affection and is learning to trust people. Although their mother is around 35 lbs, the exact adult size of these pups is still a bit of a mystery, with some expected to be larger and others likely to stay smaller. Linus is now on the lookout for his forever home, where he can continue to grow and thrive. If you're interested in adding this sweet boy to your family, reach out today!
