Please read the bio in full for answers to your questions. In the event you have a question that is not covered in the bio, please email info@seniordoghaven.org. If interested in adopting, please complete an adoption application which can be found at https://seniordoghaven.org/adoption-process/. Please note that because all our dogs live in foster homes, we are unable to set up meetings with a dog unless we have a completed adoption application on file. Adoptions must be within a reasonable distance from Temple, PA for our volunteers to be able to conduct an in-person home visit. Meet Nugget! Nugget is a 12-year-old, 26 lb., Sheltie mix who was surrendered by his owner. He was in pain, struggled to walk, and really needed some help. Nugget was taken into rescue and immediately treated for arthritis and dry eye. He requires daily medications that cost around $150 a month. Nugget received a dental and had 17 teeth removed. He also put on some much needed weight. Nugget has good vision but limited hearing. He is fully potty trained and gets along great with dogs and cats. Due to his arthritis, limited stairs will be required. Nugget walks well on a leash and enjoys being outside. An adult-only or dog-savvy child home is ideal. Nugget is a happy couch potato who enjoys laying near his people and getting endless pets. He loves resting in grass and soaking up sunshine and would really appreciate a fenced-in yard. Nugget just wants a family to call his own. Can it please be yours? Apply today!
