Does your pet have any history of health issues or medical conditions that potential adopters should be aware of?:
He was extremely malnourished as a puppy, had worms, and mites. He has since been treated for all of those issues. Due to him being malnourished I think that has contributed to him wanting to eat things he shouldn't.
