Staten Island Shelter Dogs :
Wasabi is at risk for behavior reasons. Wasabi has been tolerant of handling but is deteriorating in care, chasing his tail in kennel, shredding his bedding and biting the bars of his kennel door. He loves tennis balls and toys but can become very snatchy, coming close to handler's body parts during play. Medically, Wasabi was brought into the care center as a stray with bites of an unknown origin. Additionally, he has a dermal mass, dermatitis, dental disease. He was recently changed to HA diet due erythema found. Wasabi is a triendly, social boy who loves attention and is happy to come over tor pets! He walks nicely on leash with only mild pulling and tends to ignore other people and dogs while out and about. He's comfortable with handling and enjoys playing with his toys.
This big, silly guy has lots of energy and will thrive with plenty of exercise, mental enrichment, tun chew toys, and continued positive, reward-based training.
Wasabi can get a little excited and jumpy, and he may become anxious or destructive when lett alone, so he's looking for a patient adopter who can help him learn and teel secure.
Wasabi is recommended for a home without children under 13. With structure, patience, and lots of love, this playful pup is ready to find his forever home! T
• Hi there! My name is Wasabi and I've been at the Staten Island ACC since September (yes, you read that right)! I arrived as a stray so the staff don't know what my life was like before coming to ACC, but I had various injuries that I'm recovering from really well. I only require a little extra paperwork to be tilled out and a tew extra vet visits this year because one of my injuries was likely a bite wound (now fully healed). I'm thanktul for everyone at ACC taking such good care of me, but I think I'd like to find my forever home now. So what are you waiting for? Ask about me today!
