My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi, my name is Dewey and I have a story to share. About 10 years ago, a really nice guy took me out of this shelter and I lived a very happy life with him. Little did I know I would end up here again, but life doesn’t always go according to plan.
Here I am, looking for a new forever home to rest my well-earned grand-dad bod. I don’t need a lot in life. I like to nap, snuggle, eat, and take short walks. I also like to bark at the mail-carrier. Some say that isn’t a good hobby but I disagree. I’m not really looking for canine companions at this stage in my life, but I might be persuaded to share my space with a small, calm, female dog – as long as she isn’t too much of a pest. I don’t share my toys, I don’t share my food, but I am happy to share my love with you. I’m just a big, old, cuddle-bug of love. What do ya think? Am I your match? If you think maybe you can share a quiet home with me, please let the humans who are caring for me right now know – the sooner the better. Thanks for reading my story and I hope to hear from you soon!
