About Levi *Sanctuary Dog* In Nh (Great pyrenees) in Newport

Levi *Sanctuary Dog* In Nh is waiting for you at Barking Dog Farm Rescue in Newport, NH 03773. *Levi is a three year old neutered male great pyrenees from KY. He is a sweet soul that has had several ortho surgeries on his hips and knees. He will live on the farm as he will require more surgeries in the future. He came in emaciated at the end of September 2023 and has gained much needed weight and his gorgeous coat has come back in. Our first priority was to get all the matts out of his coat. His coat was in poor condition, dry and brittle. Levi seems to have some hearing loss, sort of like an old dog would when he is asleep, he doesnt hear you but feels vibrations mostly but does appear to hear certain tones. He does have some hearing so not totally deaf. We have been teaching him some sign language that he is responding to! Levi has gained weight and muscle mass. He is able to run around and play with the other dogs. At this point it does not look like his arthritis will effect him much in the near future but will later in life. Keeping him thin, regular exercise and supplements are a must.***We suspected Levi has issues with his back legs and xrays confirmed he does have hip dysplasia as well as the start of arthritis in his knees. We have started him on supplements and an exercise program to build muscles in those back legs and get him strong and healthy. Despite his medical issues this is one great dog. .
