On December 7, through no fault of his own, Basil was returned. His owner was moving to an apartment that would not allow him to stay. Though he had a rough start in life (his original bio below), Basil has grown into a fun loving 30 pound bundle of joy. He’s got the most adorable face and personality and is the sweetest boy you will ever meet!! He is 10 months old, 30 pounds, potty trained, not aggressive, and not destructive (unless it’s toys). He has a some energy but after a good run he’s ready to cuddle up and take a nap! Please come meet him at Northwood Animal Hospital!
[original bio] On 4-16-25, an injured pitbull puppy, male, tan, est DOB 1-10-25, was brought to Northwood on emergency. He had been hit by a car the day before and was in obvious pain. He had been seen the week before to treat a bite wound on side of his face. This time he was not using his left rear leg. Radiographs showed midshaft fracture of his tibia and fibula. Incidentally, there was a bullet noted in his rump. This poor little guy had a rough start to life.
The owners decided they could not care for Basil and relinquished him to the hospital for care. A splint was placed on his left rear legs. Since he is a young puppy, he should heal well. Vaccines were started as was deworming. He had a heavy flea and tick infestation that was addressed. He has been neutered and microchipped. He is still in a splint, but adoption can proceed. CARE will take care of his fracture management.
