A week before Christmas, River's family took him to the county shelter and requested he be euthanized because he "was old."
The shelter sent us a message asking if we could take him and of course we said YES. Poor old man didn't need to spend the holidays in the shelter, and he definitely did not need to die because he was old.
We took him in and found out he was about the sweetest old man around! He is quiet, he is good, he likes to nap! We all love him.
He has no teeth, and he has a heart murmur but that doesn't stop him from enjoying life!
It was time for him to hit the adoption floor but his foster mama said, "No way, he can stay". River now has three former PLP siblings, Paisley, Sailor and Jax!
Thanks, Kim, for fostering and adopting and taking care of the old man. ð We couldn't be happier for River.
Seniors make wonderful companions. They wouldn't abandon you so please don't abandon them
