WELCOME RJ

RJ came to FON as a surrender when his owner went into assisted living. He spent quite a bit of time alone, but has been doing well in his foster home. This is what RJ’s Foster Family had to say:

“RJ is a 9-year-old Shih Tzu/ Maltese mix that is looking for love. He enjoys walks, chewing on toys, playing with his favorite green ball, which he eagerly finds when asked, where's your green ball!  He has started to overcome loneliness and enjoys being close to his foster family. He eagerly climbs the stairs to sleep with his foster mom and dad as quiet as a mouse until they get up.  He is a dog that enjoys being around people.  He is picky with food, but we are working on that. Might do best in a quiet home, as an only dog."

RJ is not ready for adoption but will be in the near future.
