Thursday #Corgi Adoptables: Rotti of Los Angeles!

Don’t tell Rotti he’s not like other dogs. He won’t believe you. 

At first glance, you might notice Rotti has wheels supporting his hind legs. Strip away the wheels and he’s just like any other energetic, happy-go-lucky dog. 

Rotti is a 4.5 year-old male Pembroke Welsh Corgi. He has IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease), a congenital disease that’s fairly common in Corgis. Because he had surgery early in the prognosis, it’s this reason he still has function of his hind legs. If it wasn’t for the occasional lameness in his hind legs and his shiny wheels, you wouldn’t be able to tell there was anything wrong with Rotti. 

He is so incredibly lively that when he meets you for the first time, his energy is instantly and undeniably contagious. This charmer is an expert at chumming it up with just about anybody. 

Rotti’s exuberant yet tame temperament – his former family had a young child and two other dogs – would make a great addition to any family. He has a special set of needs, including the necessity of having his bladder expressed, and additional time spent on physical therapy rehab. 

Rotti more than makes up for this with his constant affection and loyalty. His smile and nose-nudges for attention will melt anyone’s heart. He’s incredibly smart, observant and understands basic commands, enjoys long walks and hikes, meeting new people and dogs, and is motivated by food/treats. 

Rotti is looking for a family, couple or single in the SoCal area willing to commit some extra time in his rehab, with the patience to accommodate his special needs. If you’re interested in meeting or adopting this charming gentleman, please visit Queen’s Best Stumpy Dog Rescue for more information and/or to fill out an application, or find them on Facebook HERE.

If nothing else, you can always follow Rotti’s journey on Instagram and tumblr. He could use some support to cheer him on as he awaits his furever home. 

Go Rotti go!
