Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Nino is such a precious and sweet little little guy. What a shame that he has to be in the position now of finding himself a new home at his age. Nino came to us from our Newark facility when his owner turned him in due to not being able to care for him any longer. He's about 13 years old, and just a sweetheart. Poor Nino was missing most of his teeth when he arrived and the ones that he did have were in terrible shape, so our veterinarian has done quite extensive dental work on him. He also had some elevated liver enzymes which is being controlled with medication. Aside from that, Nino is just such a love. He enjoys going for leisurely strolls and checking out his surroundings, and enjoys getting attention from all of the new friends that he has made. As a matter of fact, the only time Nino really barks is if you are preoccupied with something and he is looking for some attention. He is so well behaved, mellow and easy going. He's obviously housebroken and a real gentleman. Nino is just fine with well behaved dogs and cats and would just love a quiet, commotion-free home that he can relax and enjoy life in. If you can open your heart and home to this darling little guy, come in and meet Nino. File#26854 11/18/16
