Say Hello To Hamish Mickey! 🐕

By @phoenixwren3/21/2025hive-196708

Hello friends! Please say hello to my new friend, Hamish Mickey! :)

I adopted him from Denver Animal Shelter. He was brought there to get medical help, because he was hit by a car and ended up getting his leg amputated, so he's a tripod. That happened only a few weeks ago, so he understandably has a fear of cars when we go out for walks. But we'll work on it together. 💔💙


this was us meeting in the shelter for the first time

He hasn't figured out the Porch Potty is a potty place yet, but I think that will help when there's a lot of traffic (like rush hour around here - I live near a major boulevard) and he still needs to go, once he figures out why I keep bringing him out there.

*Here is how well he walks on three legs. It totally doesn't slow him down when we're out walking!*

His name at the shelter was Mickey, which I took as a sign, because the dog of my heart from childhood was a golden retriever named Mickey. :) But I've been thinking he's a Hamish too. So right now he's Hamish Mickey, Mickey Hamish. 😄🐕

He's still decompressing and getting used to me and his new home, but I hope he likes it here and we become good friends! 🥰
