About

Meet Tommy

TOMMY HAS NOT BEEN NEUTERED YET. HE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION OUTSIDE A 30 MINUTE RADIUS OF DES MOINES UNTIL AFTER HIS NEUTER ON 07/01/2025. Meet Tommy, an adorable 3.5-month-old male Pitbull mix weighing about 10 lbs. He was rescued in Oklahoma with his 7 littermates when they were dumped on the side of a rural road to die. Tommy was half the size of his littermates and thought to have passed away when he was found. He weighed only a couple of pounds when he was found near death. He was in such rough shape that he was thought to be blind and deaf. We are happy to report that with the loving 24 hour care he received in Oklahoma from his foster dad, he is thriving! He continues to gain weight and has the potential to be a medium-sized dog. Despite his size, he enjoys running and rough housing with the adult female dogs in his foster home. He is constantly on the move, very active and always searching for the next adventure or activity. Tommy is currently learning basic commands, proper manners, and is making great progress with potty training and using the bell system. He is working on leash training as well as kennel training. Tommy sleeps through the night and self-soothes well in his kennel or pen when left alone. Tommy has discovered his love for the outdoors and would lay for hours on the deck and sunbathe or go for long walks in the park enjoying the nice weather. He thrives in the company of other dogs and would benefit from a home with a canine companion to keep him active and boost his confidence. Tommy is a sweet boy who loves snuggling up with his humans. If you're looking for a loving and energetic addition to your family, Tommy might be the perfect match for you!  Siblings: Tommy (M) Georgie (M) Brooke (F) Bradley (M) Apollo (M) Audrey (F) Angelina (F) Lilly (F)   If you are interested in meeting Tommy, please complete an online application at https://hopeanimalrescueofiowa.duplie.com/forms/196/dog-application Adoption fee is $300.00 which includes spay/neuter, microchip, and age-appropriate vaccines/cares
