Welcome Rex to the RAGOM family!! Rex is a very handsome and friendly guy, 7 yrs old, 85 lbs. He came in with his Mom Chi Chi Be; they are a bonded pair that must be adopted together. Rex and Chi Chi Be look out for each other and do most everything together. They are just adorable!!! 
This is the most recent information available; however, it may change as we learn more about the dog.

6/7/2017:
We have introduced Rex to walks on the trail which he loves; everything seems to be about the new smells in the woods, etc.  He will pull in the beginning of the walk but settles down a bit on the way back.  He has excellent recall and sits on command.   He was good about getting a bath and loves loves loves to be brushed!  He just closes his eyes and enjoys; if he was a cat I think he would purr.
Rex was vetted on 5/31 with results as follows:

  • Heart worm negative
  • Fecal negative 
  • Brought up to date on all vaccinations 
  • He has chronic ear infections.  The first step in resolving this was applying medication to eliminate ear mites.  The second step is application of a liquid medicine in the ear for 2-3 weeks.  Then it is back to the vet to determine the next step.
  • Rex has a fatty growth next to his tail.  It is likely benign but should be removed.  Timing on that is tbd.

Rex will be unavailable until his medical issues are resolved.
