My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Shadow is one of the sweetest old men you will meet. He is 13 years old, his body is feeling his years but his spirit is much younger. He has overcome a lot of health issues since coming to Wisconsin from down south but he is now healthy enough to find his forever home. He is almost completely deaf. They only thing he slightly hears is the other dogs barking and he is always happy to join in. He has a fabulously distinct beagle bark.
He has weakness in his hind legs so we need to lift him on and off the couch which is his favorite place to hang out. He is getting Cosequin daily which seems to be helping quite a bit. He could barely run a month ago and now he has spurts of energy where he old man runs and trys to play bow. He is still a bit underweight but has already gained several pounds.
Shadow spends most of his day sleeping on the couch, asking for scratches, eating and wondering our fenced in backyard. He also loves car rides.
He gets along great with other dogs as long as they aren't super hyper. He is great with kids and ignores the cats.
He is a little bit of a marker when he transitions to a new environment but this only lasted around 2 weeks. He never has any accidents anymore. This is something an adopter would need to be patient with. He will wear a belly band without an issue.
He just wants a warm safe place to call home for the rest of his time. You won't find a sweeter old man than this guy.
