Mr. Beans~Adopted

Update:  Mr.  Beans is probably a Lhasa Apso/Maltese boy!  He is very friendly and takes turns being an active playful boy who loves to run, and being in your lap!

History:  His shelter name was Mr. Beans… we came up with a lot of name ideas for him, but Mr. Beans just kind of stuck!

We’re not sure what breed he is, but when we saw his shelter photo, we thought he would be an amazing lap dog and companion, more importantly, we know that the Polk County shelter has few adoptions and is over-crowded.  Why not?  He had a gorgeous coat, but due to severe matting, he had to be shaved.  He also has a large boo boo on his back which we needed to really look at.  The folks at Newman say he’s a wonderful and happy little boy!  He’s going to get a medicated bath, and get prepped for his neuter surgery tomorrow.

There’s a lot to be said about these little guys.  Not everyone has the space or the patience for a Border Collie or any dog within the herding breed.  We’ve said yes in the past, to dogs like Hugo and Wiigo, and the joy that they have brought to their new families is huge… just look at my Rosie!

Mr. Beans is a deserving little boy, and he’ll bring a lot of joy to someone’s home and family!

I know that not everyone possesses the knack for seeing a dog and imagining what it will eventually look like.  I can!  The before and after photos of Hugo and Wiigo were jaw dropping!  I guarantee you, this little guy is going to be stunning!

Special thanks to Vanessa Wilkerson and Dawn Ockstadt for transporting him for us on a Saturday!

Mr. Beans is a small little guy, around 12-15 pounds, and about 1-2 years of age, but we’ll know more about him in the next few days and will be able to provide you with details.  I hope we can also cat test him!

See more of his photos on Facebook!
