Triton

Triton is a charming boy who came to us as a stray. He has a unique, somewhat awkward gait due to a birth defect where both of his femurs are curved, causing his knees to turn outward. Despite this, he gets around quite well and walks on his feet! Due to the wear and tear on his knees, he already has arthritis and is on daily anti-inflammatories. In the future, he might benefit from a wheelchair, but for now, he's very mobile on his own. Triton isn't a fan of long walks, but he absolutely adores belly rubs and being with his people. He's generally a mellow dog with occasional bursts of playful excitement. Dinner time is his favorite part of the day! While he enjoys playing with toys, he has a tendency to eat them, so he'll need to avoid stuffed toys. However, he's very happy with a good chew bone. Triton is looking for a special place in a loving home.
