Gabe was born about ..... Please understand Google helped us with the breed choices, we are really guessing!!! Chewy is good with other dogs and cats alike. He has been around visiting children as young as 2. He does fine on leash, but the last few years the owner has not been able to walk him and he has used potty floor pads in the home. She felt that if he happened to get off leash that he would hang around his human. He did ride beautifully in the car on the two hour trip here. He is not a chewer and hasn't seemed to enjoy toys or maybe had not had access to any for some time. He is not a lap hog but does love to sit nearby and enjoys his humans companionship. Considering all the changes in a short amount of time he moved in here rather easily and should do so again when he finds another forever home. He has had some vet care over the years. He is overweight but that has to do with his circumstances. This cutie is ready for a new start in life!
We received a plea from a social worker in a city a couple hours away that an elderly lady had been released from the hospital a couple of days ago and went home to her two dogs who had been shut in the bathroom of her mobile home for a month when she had emergency surgery and a neighbor stopped by to give food and water. Yes, there were relatives not far away, but as we see day in, day out, family disappoints when it comes to an elderly human's pets. The social worker explained the lady needed to go into assisted care but she refused until her dogs were in a safe place. Truly, we are proud of her for that devotion and so are Gabe and Chewy. The two dogs have always been together but are not terribly bonded. Still we will be looking for a home where there is another dog companion or a human who is home much of the time. The lady was very grateful when we arrived to escort the dogs to Cuba and the social worker was there at the same time to escort the lady in a care facility. No one would call this a happy ending but everyone involved did the very best they could in a tough situation.
