Reintroducing Tommy.

1 year old, Staffy mixbreed, medium in size.

Through no fault of his own, Tommy is back in our care and on the lookout for his forever family.

Tommy's a friendly, loyal and affectionate boy who has had a lot of bad luck in his short life. He spent a long time with us before he finally found a home of his own, but circumstances out of his and his new owners control have led him back to the pound.

Upon his return to us, Tommy wasn't putting weight on one of his hind legs. We got him checked over at the vets where they found Tommy has Hip Dysplasia. He's had weekly injections for a month and is now back to his normal self.

The vets are happy with how he is looking and believe he can go on to a comfortable and healthy life. He will need an injection once a month for the rest of his life, which we can discuss in private messages with anyone interested in him.

Tommy deserves a family of his own, he's had one setback after another and it's about time he had some good luck.
His ideal home would be somewhere he's not left on his own for long periods, where he has a warm bed inside at night and secure fencing. With a family that can commit to getting him his monthly injections so he stays happy and healthy.
