Kibbles

Friends,

Meet darling Kibbles!  Kibbles is an approximately 3.5-to-4-month-old little bitty brindle scruffy terrier mix (whew!  Say THAT 10 times fast).  The poor baby was found as a stray and taken to BARC. 

As you can see by the “before” picture, this poor little guy was in awful shape. One can only guess what he had been through.  We rescued him right from death row—literally.  He was in the “employees only” section heading for euthanasia.  Scout’s Honor rescued him at 7 weeks old, and as you can see by the “now” pictures, he has blossomed into a precious, healthy pup.

Kibbles has doubled his weight and size in the past 2 1/2 months. He now weighs 17 pounds, which should lead him to at most 35 pounds when fully grown.

Kibbles gets along great with other dogs.  He will play with great enthusiasm, and at night, he tries to crawl into his 4-legged foster brother’s crate when it is time for bed.  He’s never met a dog he didn’t like!

Kibbles is a bit of a barker when he gets scared, but we are working on that.  We are sure when he feels completely safe and secure, that will dissipate.  He responds well to a sharp “No!” and will stop barking.

Kibbles is a loving, cuddly, happy, healthy guy.  When he is not playing with other dogs, Kibbles will climb up on the couch and curl up beside his foster mom and take a nap. 

Kibbles is both crate trained and house trained—no accidents in well over a month.  And he knows some basic commands: comes to his name, "back," "stay,” "go to bed,” and foster mom is working on "off.”  He can walk on a leash, but it's more like bouncing around on a leash while going in the right direction. (Hehe.  His foster mom said that, and it made me laugh out loud.)

Unfortunately, Kibbles foster mom is going out of the country for a month, so KIBBLES NEEDS A FOSTER HOME, if not a permanent one.
