Story
MEET PISTACHIO! Pistachio is a 12ish year old Miniature Pinscher with a frustrating story. His former owner originally tried to surrender him to a local shelter because they could no longer afford to care for a pet but when they learned that there was an intake wait and he could not be taken into the shelter immediately, he was abandoned in a local park despite having very limited vision. Shelter staff picked him up wandering around as a stray days later. Pistachio quickly landed a foster home thankfully and he's proven to be a fun, sweet little companion ever since! He's been a very easy foster dog - he's completely housebroken and hasn't had any accidents. He loves to eat (don't we all) and isn't picky but does especially love wet food. Despite being an older guy, Pistachio has a great energy level and is actually pretty quick when he wants to be! He can't see well but he recognizes voices immediately and loves to greet you at the door when he hears you come home. He'll bounce around in delight and paw at your legs to say hi! He is currently living with other dogs in foster care and doesn't mind sharing his space with them but the more rambunctious younger dogs make him a little uncomfortable. He'll bark and act as "the fun police" if they're overwhelming him. He'd be happy in a home with other low-key, friendly dogs like himself! He is also living with cats and is great with them! Because he's visually impaired, we think he'd be happier in a home without young/small kids. Pistachio is an orthopedic bed connoisseur and will snuggle right up for his afternoon (and morning and evening) naps. Since coming to the rescue, Pistachio has gotten a full medical workup. His blood work is all unremarkable which is great for a senior dog. He does have some age-related arthritis like most small senior dogs and takes Rimadyl daily to stay feeling good. He received a dental cleaning and one painful tooth extracted. He does have a large lipoma (fatty mass) on his hip/groin which doesn't impact his mobility and doesn't require any care. Overall, he's in great health! Pistachio is available for adoption through City of Elderly Love! He is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. Interested in adopting him?
