Sal is a medium sized sable male about 3 years old that was found in a swamp in Pasco county underweight and loaded with fleas and ticks. An owner did not come forward so he is now looking for his forever home.

Sal is currently in foster care with other dogs small and large and is fine.
He is easy to handle, happy for the attention of his foster dad. He had
several baths to get all the dirt out of his coat and was put under at the
vets to get all the ticks off him and out of his ears (it was easier than
making him stand for hours while they were all picked off). He is heartworm
positive but has begun the slow kill method of treatment using monthly
heartworm preventative.

Sal is okay in the car, lays on the porch and follows his foster dad around
in the yard. He is in the house but does need more house manners. He is
crate trained and walks okay on the leash.

We do not recommend that he be with small livestock (chickens), cats are
unknown.
