Background:

Brownie originally came from a low income family who had him for 9 yrs. However they confined him in the toilet for 9 yrs and this led to weak legs and troubled furcoat and skin conditions. They went into further financial challenges and could not care for him further. One of our ex-volunteer was their neighbor and told us about Brownie’s plight. He only weighed about 10kg and looked so fragile. We took over in April 2025.

Personality:

Despite the neglect or lack of proper care for the past 9 yrs, thankfully Brownie had a good full blood test result and all is well with him. He is not sterilized yet as he is settling into a temporary foster. No heartworm and no tick fever. He is getting stronger in his health, appetite and body condition as well as legs in the foster home, getting walked twice a day. He gets along fine with other dogs although he has not learn how to play since he was in insolation for 9 yrs. We really hope someone out there has a heart for him and desire to give him a taste of real home and love as he still have many good years to go.
