Why I need a new home

Human health issues (e.g. allergies, sickness)

My story

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


My handsome boy Hobbes is a tripod about 3.5 years years old. We took him to our hearts a year and a half ago because his owner passed away. She adopted him from a humane Society, they had to remove his front right leg when he was brought in because it was so mangled. That missing limb does not slow him down one bit! He should probably go to a home with a young to middle-aged owner because he loves to play and he is rambunctious! I am an elderly adult, with several hip surgeries and lots of hardware in one hip. Falling is not a good thing for me, and unfortunately he and I have gotten tangled up twice. I had one hard fall and another one that knocked me into a door. It is all because the 3 times repaired hip has lost a lot of muscle and has a lot of scar tissue, so it is not very stable. I've had a couple of other close calls because when he races by me he seems to want to make sure he touches me.
