Dillon's Story
Dillon is eight years old and is located near Phoenix, Arizona.<br/><br/>Dillon's Wish List:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> Someone who will shower him with love.<br/> <br/> <br/> Cozy strolls around the neighborhood where he can sniff the news at his own pace.<br/> <br/> <br/> Car rides and fun outings around town.<br/> <br/> <br/> He'd love to be your patio buddy or brewery sidekick, politely people-watching together.<br/> <br/> <br/> A collection of plush beds and squeaky toys so he can nap like royalty and play like he's still young at heart.<br/> <br/> <br/> A home without too many stairs to conquer.<br/> <br/> <br/> Someone who works outside the home is totally fine with him; he's a peaceful, trustworthy solo napper who will be snoozing when you get back.<br/> <br/><br/><br/>Meet Dillon, a gentleman who embodies all the best bits about adopting a senior dog. He's the kind of companion who greets every visitor with a polite hello sniff, happy to make new friends without ever overwhelming them. Dillon doesn't play favorites, he loves everyone! He's equally kind with other dogs, sharing toys, waiting patiently for treats, and even barking just to ask them to play. Around children, he's relaxed and devoted, following them from room to room and choosing to rest wherever they are. His calm nature and love of companionship make him feel like he's always been part of the family.<br/><br/>Dillon is the definition of low maintenance. He's fully housebroken, doesn't drool, and doesn't need a crate. He prefers a comfy dog bed over furniture. During meals, he shows his manners by going to his designated area and then awooing to let you know he's ready to be served. Like many seniors, Dillon moves at his own pace and his walk speed is permanently set to "stroll". He does have some arthritis but the symptoms are managed well with pain meds and joint supplements. He needs a little help getting into cars but he loves to co-pilot on rides.<br/><br/>One of Dillon's most endearing traits is his goofy personality - he's a bit of a clever treat bandit if given the chance. He may sneak into a purse, poke around a pantry, or discover that a drawer full of snacks can be opened with the right determination. It's a funny reminder that even senior dogs still have playful curiosity and moments of mischief.<br/><br/>Adopting a senior dog like Dillon means welcoming a companion who is easy to live with, full of quiet charm, and grateful for comfort and kindness. He's looking for someone who sees the beauty in the slower, gentler pace of older dogs. In return, he offers loyalty and love. Dillon is ready for a home where he can spend his golden years being cherished, and where his silly quirks and soft affection will make him feel like the heart of the household.<br/><br/>Keep checking our website for updates or submit an early application today.
