Meet Mickey: A Sweet and Shy Boy Ready for His Forever Home
Mickey is a lovable boy with a heart full of potential, waiting for a family to help him blossom. He came to us from Ukraine through War Paws Rescue and has made incredible progress since his arrival. While Mickey was initially terrified of humans, with time and patience, he’s slowly learning to trust and enjoy interactions. He’s still a bit unsure, especially with new people, but with a little encouragement, he’s starting to show his playful side and has begun initiating play with his foster family!
Mickey thrives in the company of other dogs and would benefit greatly from having a confident, kind dog in his forever home to help him continue to build his confidence. He’s good with both dogs and cats, and he loves exploring the world around him. Mickey has made huge strides in his foster home, becoming more comfortable with daily routines, playing, and even sharing a bed with his foster family and resident dogs. He’s almost fully house trained and walks nicely on a lead.
Mickey’s journey is far from over, but he is already showing the sweet, playful, and loving nature that make him a fantastic companion. He will need a family who understands that he’s still learning to be confident and comfortable with humans, but with patience and love, he will make an amazing addition to the right home.
Health and Testing: Mickey had been tested for Heartworm, Ehrlichia, Anaplasmosis, Borrelia, Babesia, and Canine Brucellosis in the Ukraine in 2022. He was treated for a positive Heartworm result but has now been negative since 2023. He had all these tests repeated on arrival at Many Tears and was negative fir all, we also recommend re-testing in 3 months and will arrange this for adopters if needed.
Mickey’s Needs:
- A home with a kind, confident resident dog.
- An adult-only home with patience and understanding.
- A quiet environment where he can continue to build confidence.
- A family willing to help him learn to be comfortable with human touch at his own pace.
Mickey is ready for the right family to offer him the love and support he needs to thrive. Could you be the one to give this wonderful boy the forever home he deserves?
