Moonshine Newfoundland Dog Mix Gales Ferry, CT

Moonshine is currently being fostered in Missouri. He is guessed to be around 5-6 yrs old.

While it will still be a little bit longer until Moonshine is given the all clear please continue to follow his journey. So far, we have learned that Moonshine absolutely loves being brushed and is enjoying the company of his foster family which includes some older children and although he has not been able to play much with his 4-legged foster friends due to exercise restrains from his vet he is very interested. It seems like some 4-legged friends might need to be on his forever home wish list!

11/13/24 UPDATE: We are so excited to announce Moonshine has completed his second and hopefully final round of heartworm treatment- way to go Moonshine!

10/2/24 UPDATE: Moonshine has completed his first week long heartworm treatment and is over the moon to be back home with his foster family where he is able to relax and be loved on. He is enjoying his puzzles, snuffle mats, and kongs to help keep him occupied while he is on limited physical activity orders from the vet.

9/18/24: We are happy to announce the vet feels Moonshine is strong enough to start his heartworm treatment. He will have his first week long hospital stay next week!

Moonshine's Story:

Moonshine was left at a property after the owners were evicted. Along with three other dogs, chickens and ducks. He was kept in a hog pen with grass/weeds taller than him, and no food or water, not even any containers that might have been used for food/water. He's very shut down, and skinny. Moonshine is in an amazing foster home where he's experiencing pampering, love and comfort, things are turning around for this sweetheart! Sadly, Moonshine is heartworm positive and severely underweight. He can't begin heartworm treatment until he's stable enough.
