Adoption pending! Puppy Sherman is a young Dober-boy who is looking for love and ready to give love!!!! Sherman would make the perfect therapy dog!! This poor little guy was the adopted in February at 8 weeks and severely mauled by another dog. He suffered a broken jaw, eye socket, and nasal cavity. The people who adopted him could not afford to get him the vet care he needed and surrendered him back to UDR so he could get the care he needed. Currently his Veterinarian care team at the University of Minnesota is very pleased with how he has healed to this point! He is super smart, food motivated, all potty and crate trained, very willing to learn new things. Sherman is bouncy and happy considering all he has been through and would make an excellent therapy dog as others can relate to him. Sherman has suffered some vision loss in one of his eyes, the vets think he can see shadows on the one side. His eye socket has healed but his head is a little mis-shapen due to the injuries. Don't feel sorry for him though as he is smart as a whip! Sherman has been attending doggy daycare and loves all his furry pals! He is working on obedience skills too. He knows sit, shake, down. Sherman loves to go for car rides and sits nicely in the back when out for a drive.
Sherman is ready to find his happy ever after. Please apply if interested in this super smart and happy Doberman puppy! He is a very special pup. Sherman is micro-chipped, vaccinated and will be neutered prior to adoption. Apply today if interested!
