Radar - Adopted


Name: Radar
Sex: Male (not altered)
Breed: Belgian Shepherd
Age: 4 ½ months
Location: Checotah, OK


Vet/Medical Info: Radar saw the vet only one time, on 6/30/2011.  At that time he was severely malnourished, they said he's "lucky to be alive".  They treated for fleas and ticks, addressed his worms, and began daily vitamin supplements.  He could not have survived anesthesia then.  He is not neutered, they did no HW testing and gave no vaccines.  The notes say "appears to be blind", but they have no more info than that.

Owner Info: Radar currently resides at the Checotah Animal Shelter (no-kill shelter), he was found by a couple that were walking/visiting Lake Eufaula in Oklahoma. He was near death. The couple contacted the shelter and they took Radar and will NOT give up on him. He was unable to walk, eat or drink but they gave him fluid by syringe, hand fed him and helped him potty by carrying him out. All he could do was cry. They made sure to roll him often from side to side and prop him up to circulate his blood. A volunteer couple from Eufaula took Radar to their home for one on one attention and now Radar is walking, eating, playing and ready for a forever home and a lot of love. Radar's eyes are open, they believe that he can see shadows.
