My personality

My story

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

This sweet old man is looking for his happily ever after. Milo has lived most of his life outside living on a chain. He is scared to death of thunderstorms, so as you can imagine being stuck outside during one had to be traumatic for him. During those times, he would find ways to try to escape those storms and would ultimately get loose, which led him to our care.
Milo came in with severe skin issues and a severely bloated belly. We knew we needed to get him the proper vetting he needed.
After a visit with the vet yesterday, it is determined that Milo has a skin infection which is being treated and he was diagnosed with mild kidney disease. He needs to be on a special kd/food diet and will need a phosphate binder for high phosphorus.
Milo needs a calm, quiet home where he can live out his senior years. He is an 11 year old Jack Russell. This old man will be going to an indoor only home so he can get the love he so rightfully deserves. He doesn't seem to mind cats, but a meet and greet with potential dog siblings is a must.

His adoption fee is $130. He will come current on his age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, heartworm tested negative and neutered.
