Doug

AGE: 8 or 9 years WEIGHT: 65 lbs Doug is one of our rescues that has been with us for a year or longer. He was surrendered to us after a good samaritan found him wondering the streets. When he came to our rescue, his back was extremely irritated and he would get upset if anyone tried to touch it. He also was covered with fleas and heartworm positive. After much needed TLC, including a bath, flea medication, heartworm treatment, and neutering, Doug is ready to go to his forever home! He now loves to get his back scratched and will do “Dougie Stomps” when you scratch the right spot and alternate stomping his back legs because it feels so good. Additionally, he loves going for long walks and taking in the smells and sights and, afterwards, taking a cozy nap on a pallet of soft comfy blankets. The only thing he likes more than that, is dinnertime. Doug is our oldest resident and sometimes we call him our “grumpy old man” because he is bit selective when meeting new dogs, but he loves people and has never met a stranger. Sometimes his joints and hips get sore, but that does not stop him from doing a happy dance when he sees someone bringing his food to him!  We are guessing Doug is some type of lab mix and about 8 or 9 years old. He is longing for a home environment where he will be showered in love and treats. If you are interested in fostering or adopting Doug, please reach out to us! Our email is [email protected].
