Ernie's Story

What word best describes Ernie? Snugglebug! He loves nothing better than snuggling up with his person to watch a good movie or read a book. Ernie is 8 yrs old & came to us from our friends at Team Inch Sighthound Rescue. They rescued him there from dreadful conditions at a puppy mill. As you can see, he has limited vision in his right eye but it doesn't affect him at all. The vet said it's likely an old injury that wasn't treated properly. Ernie was also successfully treated for heartworm disease. He's currently being fostered in NY but can travel for the right family. Fill out an application today if you're looking for a great snuggle buddy. Ernie is great with other dogs & even cats & kids!
