Saving seniors isn’t always the “sexy” thing to do. It’s extremely hard for them to compete with all the puppies on the local adoption circuit, but it’s pretty much impossible for them to find a way out of the shelter without rescue which is why you will usually find at least one senior in each of our pulls.
When we bring seniors into rescue it is typical that they need additional vetting of some sort along with the TLC. In Eeyore’s case we knew from the get go that he was going to be a medical case, but it’s not your typical senior stuff. Eeyore came to us nearly bald. He was suffering from demodex mange. We couldn’t even decide on his breed until a few weeks after treatment. He’s gone through weeks of medicated baths, topical applications, and oral antibiotics to get him to this point and now he is finally ready to find that home sweet home.
Eeyore is about as easy going as they come. He gets along with feline friends and the canines too. He’s isn’t overly pushy with his dog friends. If they want to play he’ll play, and if they aren’t into that he’s fine to go chill on the other side of the room. The same goes for his energy level. Naps, lounging and just hanging out is great but if you’re up for a walk do is he. Eeyore isn’t a huge barker, seems to have all his house skills mastered and has a pretty good grasp on basic manners. He loves a nice yak chew and human companionship. Eeyore is 8 years old and 35lbs. This boy would fit well into most families. If you think this sweet boy could be your next best friend email [email protected] today!
