Aemon is a handsome, gentle 2-year-old mixed breed boy weighing about 46lbs. Rescued from Barbados and currently fostered in Ajax, Aemon is a shy boy who is learning that the world can be a kind place. He has a sweet, puppyish personality that is slowly emerging. A real couch potato at heart, Aemon loves his rest and cozy naps, with occasional bursts of playfulness. He enjoys treats and toys, but is happiest lounging nearby, quietly keeping you company. He is crate and house trained, and is good with dogs and older children. Aemon was born with microphthalmia, a condition where the eyes are smaller than normal and may be associated with other eye abnormalities.
Ideal Home
Aemon would thrive in a calm, loving home with predictable routines and adopters who enjoy being thoughtful, engaged dog parents. A quiet area with access to a securely fenced yard would be ideal. He's best suited to an adult-only home or one with dog-savvy, older children. He would benefit from living with a dog sibling, as he seems to gain confidence from canine friendships. He hasn't met cats but does well with the household bunny and shows no prey drive.
Ongoing Health
Aemon was born with microphthalmia, a condition where the eyes are smaller than normal and may be associated with other eye abnormalities. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations.
Training & Support
Aemon is a wonderful house dog. He’s calm, respectful, and settles quickly in his crate, especially with a cozy blanket. He can be left alone for short periods and does well sticking to a predictable routine. He walks nicely on leash and continues to gain confidence, improving steadily with each outing. He enjoys being pampered and allows handling for baths and nail trims. While he can be wary of strangers and noisy environments, he has been making progress with reassurance. He hasn’t started working on formal commands yet, but he’s eager, attentive, and responsive in his own gentle way. When meeting new people, he may initially retreat to observe from a safe distance. With patience, consistency, and a calm approach, he slowly opens up and begins to show his affectionate side.
