Manny/Littleman Finds His Foster Home

Manny, now Littleman, was turned into the Clifton, NJ Animal Shelter, who contacted NEBTR to care for this 1 year old youngster.  Foster Mon Carolyn McCarthy lovingly cared for him for many months until she could find the perfect forever home for him.  She trained him, and sought medical care and made homecooked meals for his irritable bowel syndrome. while at Carolyn's, Littleman's best friend was Cesar, the emaciated dog that Carolyn also cared for. Cesar was adopted by Laura Ratsavong in Brooklyn, and has the perfect forever ending.  

Finally, Dr. Steve Fries entered the picture. Dr. Steve is an animal chiropractor who has two other dogs of his own, Roo and Ted. Steve says, "My new little guy, formerly Manny, is now Littleman.....he seems to enjoy hearing his new name. Hard to believe a week elapsed. Roo really likes him, but doesn't seem to want to play chase. He is obsessed with toys, bones and antlers and is very attached to me already. Knock on wood.....no outbreaks of diarrhea (he has a diagnosis of irritable bowel syndrome), and is tolerating the slow addition of raw diet to his food. He jumped on my kayak several times...hopefully in the warmer months Littleman will enjoy going for a paddle with me. He is an expert at snuggling and joins me the instant I sit or lie on the bed to watch TV. On our walk around the neighborhood this morning the creek on which I live was at low tide. The marsh must have smelled heavenly to Littleman....he just stood and inhaled for a full 5 minutes." Sounds like the ideal home for an active BT!
