My story

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

***HOSPICE ALERT***
Fender, the sweet, happy, loveable guy is hoping that someone will have the courage to love him as much as he loves others. His optimistic tail wags are both inspiring and heartbreaking. Our medical team removed a substantial mass from his chest, and while we wait for the results from the lab, we are quite sure that the news won`t be what we want for him. We don`t know how much good time this great dog has left, but we know that right now, he is full of hope. He hopes that he can spend his time out of the shelter with a family that takes him on car rides, fluffs his soft bed, and treats him to as many cookies as he wants. Fender hopes that since we weren`t able to find his first family, that we will be able to find his last.

Fender is available for foster or fee-waived adoption.
