My story

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

Meet Ward, the 10 year old cur mix with a heart of gold and a sweet, soulful face that tells a story of resilience. This handsome senior came to us as a stray, and sadly, no one came looking for him. It breaks our hearts to see such a loving dog spend his golden years in a shelter kennel instead of a cozy retirement home. Ward is a gentle and affectionate soul who adores treats (he’ll sit politely for one!) and listens like a pro. He seems interested in making new dog friends, so if you already have a pup at home, bring them by to meet Ward and see if they’re a match. Ward is neutered, ready to go, and just waiting for someone to take him home. At 10 years old, he’s the perfect “plug-and-play” dog—low-maintenance, sweet, and full of love to give. Whether you’re looking for a loyal companion to snuggle with on the couch or a buddy for easy strolls around the neighborhood, Ward is your guy. Don’t let this special boy spend another day in the shelter—come meet him today and give him the retirement he so richly deserves!

By adopting me today you will save the life of two pets -- you'll save me and that will make room for the Shelter to rescue and save another pet.
