Listing Description

I adopted Mr. Man end of January 2023. He instantly took to the other dog I have in the home, sharing bones and snuggling. He had lots of severe diarrhea for days on end, upwards of 10 times a night. He was diagnosed with giardia and given a round of medicine. Once the medication was complete, the diarrhea came back. I took him in again and they also found he had worms so got a round of dewormer. After that medicine was done, the diarrhea came back again. I proceeded to do multiple blood panels and testing, all which came back normal. The vet thinks, not officially diagnosed, a bacterial imbalance in his gut such as IBD or bacterial colitis. We are doing an aggressive round of medication and prescription dog food for gastrointestinal issues. As of today, he has not had diarrhea in 3 weeks, and has one week of medication to complete. Hopefully this will resolve the issue and only prescription food is needed.

He showed no signs of reactivity or aggression in the first 2 months I had him. He walked with my other dog, even went to daycare a few times. He then started to exhibit reactive and aggressive behavior on walks. I could no longer walk my dogs together. I had to limit my time and area of walks as to not encounter other dogs or small animals. I was walking with a front clip harness. I started to bring treats on my walks hoping that could help distract him. I then started to use an e-collar and pinch collar with no success. He does wear a muzzle for the safety of everyone. I even tried trazadone in the hopes it would balance him. When that didn’t work, we switched to Prozac, which does not seem to be balancing him either.

He is good with people in the home and on walks. He is a lover one on one. I live in a townhouse, and I believe he needs much more area to roam and play (large yard or farmland). He truly has great qualities; he just needs stronger intervention and a stronger training skillset than I can give him.

He will come with food, medication and a collar.
