Notes from Mutt Love Rescue

Nothing is better than seeing Mickey smile! This one year old guy had a rough start in life, living with 14 other dogs in 2 rooms of a very dark house. Getting out came with a big sigh and with some help from his foster sibling, the smiles started. Mickey has been calm and mellow so far and seems to get along with everyone and calm canine friends bring him comfort. With gentle interactions and tasty treats, humans are also quickly becoming his friends. The outside world is still new and scary and watching life from the window and a couch is currently his speed. With patience and time, we’re sure he’ll become the brave boy we know is in there. With a crate as his safe space he’s well on his way to being both crate and potty trained. Most new experiences for Mickey take him a minute to figure out but once he does, it's all good and he never looks back!
