ADOPTED
He was left in a Brooklyn apartment - then spent a month at
a city shelter. Still he was a happy, friendly dog when rescued. Skinny
and hungry. He is over 10 years old, but one would never guess his age
when watching him. He is still quick and playful. He seems to be a mix
of a Jack Russel terrier - wiry coat, and an Aussie! About 30 lbs.The JR
part gives him the quick, frisky personality and of course smarts! The
Aussie part adds friendly personality and , yes, obedient behaviour. McGyver
is a happy dog, but he would be even happier if he had a family of his
own.
McGyver does have a recent medical problem: When excited he had a brief
epileptic seizure. This was only observed once so far, and he quickly recovered.
No recurrence, and although medication is available, it has been held for
now.
