My story

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

Sheldon is a sweet senior who is so happy to be off the streets. He is about 10 years old and weighs a little over 10 pounds. He is already neutered and up to date on vaccines. He has some typical senior issues (a cataract, some dental issues, a little hard of hearing) and has a really funny gait- he looks like he is tapdancing! He is fine with other friendly dogs and cats, but really prefers humans. His ideal day is spent sitting on the couch cuddled up next to you, taking some leisurely strolls around the house, a few bathroom breaks and some hearty meals. Perfect for seniors or someone who works from home.

Please note that Sheldon is a slow adjuster. An adopter needs to be prepared for barking and accidents for the first month or so until Sheldon is fully used to his new surroundings.
