Donut is having surgery 6/30 to remove a fatty tumor(lipoma). Owner is paying for.  Wound healing has been slow.  Donut has had two further surgeries to close the surgical site.  He currently (8-11-10) has an open lesion approx quarter-sized that is not healed.  Donut will be on hold for 2 weeks to assess progress of wound healing.
Update:  Donut's wound is nearly healed.  He had a cough this past week, but this has also passed quickly.  He is now ready for his forever home!
Hi my name is Donut.  You may remember a few weeks ago my sister Muffin found a new home.  My family had to surrender us due to allergies in the family.  They owned a bakery, so our names reflected that.  My name doesn't match me, I am more of a Roscoe or Rocky, but I don't mind the name thing, I just like being around people.  I am my foster mothers "shadow".  I had surgery the end of June for a large lipoma (fatty tumor) on my flank.  It took a while to get the incision healed, and I'm almost there, finally.
I am a big, lovable, 5 1/2 year old; 88#, all black, and have deep brown eyes.  I have pretty nice manners in the house; I know sit, stay, come, down, shake and "treat".  I am housebroken, and will go in to the crate, but I do not like it.  I do bark loudly at new sounds and am pretty excited when company comes to the door.  I am trying to learn to be more laid back about this.  I love to go for a walk, ride in the car and chase the ball.  I am still trying to figure out my house mate, the cat, so I bark at her and chase her when I get the chance.  It's lots of fun for me, but not so much for the cat.  I get along well with my foster sister Petey (dog), but am way too active for her taste. 
I'm ready for a new home, so check out my handsome photos, and give me a call.
