Seamus in Dorchester, MA

Seamus is an eight-year-old male Cavalier born on April 21, 2016. He is small, weighing in at  at 14 pounds. He came to rescue as a breeder release.

Seamus is a sweet, loving, shy and devoted Cavalier who enjoys nothing more than cuddling on the couch. He has adapted quickly to his foster family, and loves short walks, playing in the backyard, and belly rubs.

While in foster care, Seamus has learned to successfully walk on a leash, and is almost fully potty trained.

Seamus has been fully vetted and is up-to-date on immunizations and preventatives. It was discovered that he has a neurological condition called syringomyelia (SM). This is a new diagnosis for him, and he is responding very well to the prescribed medication which costs about $40 per month. He will need to be monitored for the remainder of his life. We are hopeful that the medication will allow his owner to manage this condition quite well. Seamus is heart clear at age eight, and otherwise healthy.

Seamus will need a quiet home without young children, a fenced yard and an owner who has the time to give him the attention that he deserves. His new owner must be committed to managing Seamus’ condition and medication, as well as reinforcing his house training. Additionally,  a senior canine companion of similar temperament would be ideal.

If you are looking for a loving, appreciative companion with dark, soulful eyes and a happy wagging tail, look no further than Seamus. Won’t you welcome him into your home and heart?
