My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Berkley is a SWEET 10-12 year old Lhasa Apso/Shih Tzu mix. He came to us from a high-kill pound in NW IN after he was found as a stray. When Berkley came to us, he was so matted that nobody knew his breed. When our vet groomed him, his hair weighed almost 2lbs.

Berkley is a great boy who does not mind other dogs or cats. He loves children, but his new adopter should watch small kids so they don't trip over him and fall on him. Berkley requires a soft dog food diet as he has no teeth left. He also has "Dry Eye" which is where the tear ducts do not produce enough tears. He needs drops put in his eyes twice daily for the remainder of his life. Berkley is also hard of hearing, but not completely deaf. He walks on the slow side, but does not snooze all day! He is a comedian and a lover - the perfect dog for an elderly couple!!

Berkley is up to date on vaccines, dewormed, neutered, heartworm tested negative, and microchipped.


If you are interested in Berkley, please contact our Canine Adoption Coordinator, at dogadoptions@rornfp.org for more info.



Please note, we do not have a building, so there are no "viewing hours". Please email for an application as our volunteers may not be able to return your call promptly. Thank you.
