Bertie's Story
Bertie is the sweetest senior boy in the world and is looking for a quiet home to spend the rest of his days with a family who loves him. He came to our rescue after being surrendered to a shelter on the reservation because his owner was elderly and couldn't care for him anymore. His back nails were so long they curled underneath his paws and were imbedded in the pads of his feet! He was also badly in need of a dental and had accessed teeth. But amidst all of that he was still loving and loyal to whoever would take care of him. <br/>After his arrival here, we have provided vet care for him to trim his nails, do bloodwork, and give him the dental he needed. Our vet estimated him to be around 14 years old. He weighs just under 13 lbs. now. He has some arthritis in his hind end and legs but other than that he is in great shape for his age. <br/>Bertie wants nothing more than a soft, cozy bed to sleep on the floor next to his person. He can't jump onto furniture or on and off the bed, but we do lift him up so he can sleep with his foster mom. He is house trained but needs to be let out and then watched when he's outside, unless his yard is small and secure. He does like to wander around outside and we want to make sure he stays safe. <br/>Bertie is fine around other dogs and cats but he will bark if they get right in his face. He's been fostered in a home with kittens, adult cats, and big dogs and is doing fine with everyone. He also loves people of all ages. <br/>Bertie's adoption fee is $300 to help us with some of the cost of his vet care. He was previously neutered and chipped, but has been updated with vaccinations. He is a wonderful boy who deserves a special place to rest and be loved. <br/>For more information please call us at 970-749-1968 or submit an application at www.durangoanimalconnection.com/forms-adoption
