Description:
This little cutie was rescued in Georgia and looking for a forever home. He is quiet and will sit in your lap. We are trying to get him used to being on the leash. He seems to like other dogs. His "neighbor" is another small, quiet dog, and the two of them don't bother each other. He likes having his head scratched. He doesn't seem too interested in treats, but maybe we just haven't found the kind he likes yet.

Like many dogs in the South, Icarus is heartworm positive, but don't let that stop you from adopting a great dog! We are treating him with a monthly heartworm preventative, the slow-kill method.

PRBJ treats ALL of our dogs with monthly Heartworm preventative. HW+ dogs are treated with the recommended slow method, using monthly HW preventative as it is gentler on the animal’s system than the more invasive, injection method. Most dogs that are Heartworm positive can lead healthy, normal lives if the disease is caught early and treatment began. There are different options to treat HW and new owners may choose to redirect their type of treatment with direction of their vet.  All HW+ dogs have a HW treatment info sheet in their adoption folder which will be provided to new owners.
