Gary's Story

At 14 years old, Gary is a 14-pound Jack Russell Terrier/Chihuahua mix who is officially ready to retire. He's now reviewing applications for the perfect cozy forever home.<br/><br/>Gary's retirement goals include:<br/> Short, leisurely walks<br/> A respectable toy collection<br/> Reliable snack distribution<br/><br/>He is incredibly people-oriented and thrives on companionship. If you work from home, are retired, or simply love being around your dog throughout the day, Gary would consider that a major qualification. He doesn't want a party house - he wants a peaceful headquarters where he can relax, feel secure, and keep an eye on his favorite person.<br/><br/>As a senior gentleman, Gary prefers a slower pace. He can be a bit anxious and would do best in a calm home without children under 16. He currently coexists politely with another dog and mostly does his own thing, so a respectful canine companion could be fine, but he'd also be perfectly happy as your one-and-only.<br/><br/>Gary was surrendered due to financial hardship, through no fault of his own. Health-wise, he's doing well overall, aside from a few normal senior perks like benign lipomas and some well-loved teeth.<br/><br/>What Gary is really looking for now is simple: stability, companionship, and a soft place to land for his golden years. If you have a quiet home, a warm lap, and a commitment to snack management, Gary would love to meet you.<br/><br/>If you are interested in Gary, click Apply for Adoption!
