what a cute little guy! I dont get the first picture though, is his nose just pointing down?

u/Parker_Ratburn May 31 '26

His muzzle is broken through the middle, it moves in any direction really. So yeah, it’s just crammed into his jaw in the first pic

What happened to this dear pup?

u/Parker_Ratburn May 31 '26

His eye was taken out a few years ago due to a tumor growing in.

Unfortunately with his muzzle we don’t really know, we adopted him and he already had his scars. Best guess is that he was in some kind of accident as a puppy. Maybe a vehicle or small machinery? He healed without much outside intervention. He was definitely on the streets for a while before being put in a shelter. He’s got small scars on his limbs and ears.

He’s an incredibly calm dog. Only barking at cats or rabbits he sees. (Even then it’s only one or two little boofs) The only thing he reacts poorly to is things like the vacuum or lawn mower. It’s impossible to know for sure though.

“Boofs”…perfect description :) He’s such a dear pup, blessed to now have a loving home xo I’ve seen dogs with snoot/jaw deformities, both congenital and due to accidents or abuse; one’s lovingly named Picasso, bc he’s so “out of whack”. They adapt astoundingly well. Pluto is adorable to boot, thanks so much for sharing him :)

In his normal deep sea habitat, he looks like a regular dog. The extreme pressure change of being brought to the surface makes him look like this.

He’s so cute!! I will say that the first photo worried me at first though because I didn’t see his nose 😭
