Dusty's Story

Dusty is around 12 years old, and he is just the most fragile little Chihuahua. At this stage in his life, he shouldn’t have to worry about much of anything other than being loved, cozy, and spoiled. <br/><br/>Sadly, Dusty was found with a harness and leash still attached to him. He was microchipped, so we reached out to his owner hoping we could get him safely back home. Unfortunately, it quickly became apparent that his owner was not interested in having Dusty back. <br/><br/>So now, at 12 years old, this little guy is having to start all over.<br/><br/>Dusty does not have any major medical issues that we are aware of. He will need a dental at some point, which is something his future family will need to plan for, but otherwise this little senior is doing well.<br/><br/>What Dusty really needs now is a gentle, loving home where someone will cherish him for whatever time he has left. A quiet place to curl up, a soft bed, a warm lap, and someone who will remind him every single day that he is safe and loved. <br/>Senior dogs have so much love left to give, and Dusty is hoping someone will see just how special this little guy is.<br/><br/>If you have room in your heart for a fragile senior who deserves to be spoiled rotten, Dusty would love to meet you. <br/>Apply to adopt him here — https://tinyurl.com/3z7krvyu
