He's extremely skittish. The foster is probably the only one that can pick him up, and we have probably had him for about a year now. He's also scared of men and children. He needs someone that will be absolutely committed to spending a lot of one on one time with him.

He will take an experienced dog handler and lots of patience. The owner was going to just throw him over the fence and let him be a stray. Safe saved him from the elements and coyotes.

Size

Details
Not good with kids, Not good with dogs, Not good with cats, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
PATCHES was spayed 11/28/18 at Servicios Medicos Veterinarios, Sonora, Dr. Martin Figueroa DVM.PATCHES has been diagnosed with "Masticatory Muscle Myositis" (also called Eosinophilic Myositis), an autoimmune disorder that causes the muscles in her jaw to freeze up. She currently can open her mouth only about 3/8 inch wide, and is getting a diet of special soft food.This is not surgically treatable. This condition requires long term medical care, and probably cannot be cured. Patches is now on prednisone and antibiotics. UPDATE: " PATCHES' myositis is currently stable, she is not on medication at this time. She has been on numerous protocols of steroids and antibiotics without significant improvement. If the myositis continues to be stable, she may have a normal life span. If her condition deteriorates she will require additional medical care, including medications, and that could impact her longevity. There is no further cure or surgical procedure available at this time. She has been seen by 4 vet clinics, including the most qualified specialists in Arizona.PATCHES is available for adoption as a Special Needs dog, shown by appointment only to avoid stress of adoption site. (Adoption application in advance required).

Coco needs a secure yard. She needs a play mate, a loving family and to be kept busy. She can jump over 4 feet. She is sweet and loving. As cute and cuddly as she is, she has lots of energy and should not be mistaken for a lap dog. Maybe later in life for her, for now she wants to play and enjoy life. She is looking for her furever loving home. Coco has escaped from multiple adoption homes. Will need special attention.
