Billy's Story

Meet Billy – Your Golden Years Best Friend!<br/><br/>Looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold? Meet Billy, a 12-year-old Dachshund mix weighing in at a cuddly 18 pounds. This sweet senior gentleman is microchipped, neutered, up to date on vaccines, and recently had a full veterinary exam, including senior bloodwork.<br/><br/>Like many dogs his age, Billy has a few senior quirks—some limited vision, a little arthritis, and a few extra pounds he's carrying around—but don't let that fool you. This soft, gentle boy still has so much love to give. His favorite activities include snuggling close, showering his favorite people with kisses, and simply being by your side. He's fully potty trained and so adorable that when bedtime rolls around, he'll often tuck himself into bed!<br/><br/>Billy gets along well with other small dogs and even cats. However, due to experiences in his past, he's not comfortable around all large dogs and would do best in an adult-only home without children. He is searching for a calm, quiet home where he can enjoy the simple pleasures of life and spend his golden years surrounded by love.<br/><br/>Billy is truly one of the kindest, sweetest souls you'll ever meet, and he's ready to be someone's cherished companion.<br/><br/>Interested in giving Billy the forever home he deserves? Please complete a Statement of Interest on the Alternative Humane Society website.<br/><br/>#AdoptBilly #SeniorDogLove #AdoptDontShop #ForeverHomeNeeded #RescueDog #SeniorSweetheart
