Rex

Rex is a sweet senior boy, born in April 2014, and believed to be a Basenji mix. At this stage in life, he’s simply looking for a peaceful place to spend his golden years—somewhere soft to nap, a steady routine, and a family who appreciates the quiet joy of an older dog. This handsome gentleman was sadly returned to us when his owner’s health needs changed and they had to move to a smaller home. It’s clear he was deeply loved, and now he’s ready to share that love with someone new. Rex has lived happily with other dogs and has a calm, gentle presence. He does have some vision and hearing limitations, so a relaxed, predictable environment is ideal for him. He’s house-broken but will need a little time to learn his new routine—he aims to please and just needs patience as he settles in. He walks beautifully on a leash, enjoys slow strolls, and is happiest indoors where he can curl up comfortably. If your home has a cozy fireplace, Rex would definitely consider that a big bonus—perfect for warming his aging bones during the colder months. If you’re looking for a loyal, easygoing companion who wants nothing more than a quiet place to rest his head, Rex just might be your perfect match. Let this deserving senior spend his retirement surrounded by love. Rex is neutered, vaccinated including rabies, microchipped, wormed, and negative for Heartworms.<br/><br/>Note: Rex is currently in foster care.<br/><br/>Note: To adopt, you must live within approximately 100 miles of one of our adoption sites (Benld or Springfield IL), and be at least 18 years of age.
