Paul

Read through completely before applying! Meet Paul! Paul has Cerebellar Hypoplasia (CH), a neurological condition that makes him a little wobbly and unsteady on his feet. CH is not painful, and it doesn't affect his happy, loving personality or his ability to enjoy life. Life with a dog with CH is often much easier than people expect. Dogs with CH simply have their own unique way of getting around and quickly learn how to navigate their environment. A home for Paul should include:

• Non-slip flooring such as rugs, yoga mats, or runners to help provide traction and prevent slipping on tile or hardwood floors.

• No access to stairs unless they are safely blocked off with baby gates.

• A safe environment with soft bedding and padded areas where he spends time.

• Raised food and water bowls, which can make mealtime easier for some CH dogs.

• Patient, understanding adopters who appreciate that he may do some things a little differently.

• A moderate activity level with supervised playtime to help prevent falls or injuries.

The biggest thing Paul needs is a family willing to look past his wobble and see the amazing dog underneath. He does not require constant medical care because of his condition, and CH is not progressive, meaning it will not get worse over time. He simply needs a safe, loving home where he can thrive and be accepted for who he is. Per Wisdom Panel, Paul is a Yorkie, Biewer Terrier, and Shih Tzu mix. He is 2 years old and ready to find a family that will love him just the way he is. If you're interested in adopting this special little guy, please submit an application at www.rescuerowinc.org.

Rescue Row is a 501(c)3 (non-profit) all volunteer dog rescue organization serving the DFW Metroplex. We are dedicated to rescuing dogs in shelters, dogs in abusive or neglectful situations, and dogs surrendered by their owners because of difficult circumstances. We place dogs in loving, responsible, committed permanent homes, following a comprehensive adoption process, which includes taking considerable care in finding good matches and educating prospective adopters about the responsibilities and costs of bringing a dog into their homes and lives. Dogs in our care are spayed or neutered, microchipped, receive all appropriate veterinary care and treatment, and placed in nurturing foster homes while they await placement in their permanent homes. We assist dogs in distress without regard to age, breed or ease of placement. Dogs in the greatest need take priority. Finally, we strive to work with shelters and other rescue and humane organizations to develop a network of supporters and volunteers in order to create a better world for homeless dogs.
