Sparrow is a happy energetic pup that has been through a tough time. He came to us through Animal Control in Philadelphia, he had a bad ear infection in both ears and seemed to be missing an eye. We took him to the vet to get his ear infection treated and his eye looked at. It turned out that he does have an eye it is just a really small one (most likely non-functioning) and his eyelid grew small as well so he just has a little slit for an eye opening. The vet said it is purely cosmetic and it is not an issue as long as he doesn't scratch at it or it looks like it bothers him. Which it absolutely doesn't. He was treated for his ears about a week and a half ago and his foster mom can tell that it is clearing up. He is responding to noises and he is using his little voice to let his foster mom know he can hear :-). He is a normal happy dog. Because he cant see out of his little eye he sometimes bumps into things but it really hasn't been an issue.
Sparrow is a bundle of energy and joy! He LOVES to go on walks and puts his little paws up so his foster mom can put his harness on. Once they are out the door he can't wait to smell EVERYTHING. He walks well on a leash. He also rides really well in the car. He is a little love bug and loves to be petted and gives kisses all the time!! He is constantly making his foster mom smile with his cute little quirks.
Sparrow would need to be in a home with another dog. He loves his foster home doggie brothers and is always following them around checking out what they are doing. Sparrow is not housebroken but his foster mom is making GREAT progress with him! He will soon enough be fully housebroken. He is also learning how to sit, come when called and lay down. He is a smart little man and he is catching on quick. The person that adopts this little love bug will need to have patience and be willing to work with him. Sparrow is vacationing in Burlington, NJ with Carol.
