Update 12.03.2025:

We were devastated when we received the news. During a routine check-up, our beautiful junior, FIYERO, tested positive for Leishmaniasis. Devastated because the label “Leishmania-positive” is now permanently attached to him, drastically reducing his chances of being adopted

Leish positive means the dog carries antibodies from a past contact with the Leishmania parasite.
He’s healthy, looks great, and takes simple daily medication to keep it under control.
Many dogs with leish live long, happy, normal lives — they just need regular check-ups and love like any other dog.

Many people believe that this diagnosis means a dog is dangerous or destined for a poor quality of life. In reality, with early detection and proper care, dogs with Leishmaniasis can live completely normal, happy lives and reach old age. Fiyero is an extraordinary young dog—friendly, sensitive, social, and playful, yet with a calm demeanor. He’s currently about 10 months old and weighs around 17 kg. In the video, you can see him walking on a leash for the first time. Would you have guessed it’s his first time? Please don’t let the label “Leishmaniasis” overshadow his incredible personality. Open your heart to Fiyero and give him the bright future he deserves!

His story:

Fiyero, soon-to-be-stunning lady’s man, was abandoned in a small box in the blazing heat right in front of the shelter. He is the brother of Elphaba, Boq and Dr. Dillamond. They were born in May 2024.
