My personality

My story

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

Meet Romeo, an adorable senior pup with a heart as big as his name! This sweet boy is over 8 years old and, while he’s slowly losing his eyesight, he’s still healthy, happy, and full of love to give. Romeo recently had a dental cleaning and had a few teeth removed, but that hasn’t stopped him from enjoying life.

He’s a well-behaved, housebroken gentleman who loves all adults, kids, dogs, and even cats. Romeo’s favorite pastime is lounging outside in the sun, soaking up the warmth and enjoying the world around him. His gentle, loving nature makes him an ideal companion for a retired individual or couple. He thrives in a calm, cozy home and would prefer someone who works from home or spends most of their time at home.

Romeo is ready to bring endless love and comfort to his forever family—could that be you?
