 Patrick, our 18 pound 4 month old puppy, is having a growth spurt. The growth has been primarily directed to the ear area. We can't guarantee that the rest of Patrick's body will catch up, but we did tell Patrick that it would. So, when you meet him, please don't point out that he looks like a jack rabbit.

Patrick was found after having been hit by a car. He sustained a broken pelvis, so we took him in to give him time to heal. After weeks of rest, you'd never know Patrick had been injured. In fact, he's quite the daredevil. If allowed, we suspect Patrick would take up base jumping (note: he's not allowed). Patrick can now do all the things other puppies can do (not base jumping).

In his foster home, Patrick is learning the ropes. He's crate trained and has given himself a strict bedtime of 9 pm. Patrick is potty trained and is learning what is a chew toy and what is NOT a chew toy. Smart and curious, Patrick loves to explore almost as much as he loves to cuddle and play.

Patrick is learning how to make friends with new people. He's a little shy, but is coming out of his shell more every day. Once Patrick realizes a stranger has treats, they quickly becomes part of his inner circle. Patrick is good with other dogs and was recently the star of his puppy social class. We suspect a dog-savvy cat could also win Patrick over, as could kids older than 10.

Patrick is current on his flea and heartworm prevenatives and is up-to-date on his vaccines. Like all puppies, Patrick needs an adopter who will continue to work on his training and socialization (please, for the love of Dog, don't apply for a puppy that you don't plan to train). We suspect Patrick will be just shy of 40 pounds fully grown.

Are you curious to see if Patrick's body ever catches up to his ears? Only one way to find out!
