My story

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

Possum is a mellow, polite, and affectionate older gentleman who loves engaging and being near his people. He is approximately 10 years old, and has a lot of years left! He is very good with other dogs of all sizes, and though his interaction with them can sometimes be subtle, he likes to play, and enjoys their company. He is also good with cats, as he mostly ignores them. He also really enjoys being outside, so a fenced yard is a must!

He does have limited hearing (he can hear some noises), and it can cause him to seem slightly aloof. But once you get in his line of vision, he will give you his full attention! He also has some arthritis in his back hips, making it difficult for him to get out of the car (but can do so easily with help, and is very polite during the ride), and making it hard for him to handle stairs. He is on medication for this, and he should improve dramatically.

He's just a sweet old man who is looking for a quiet home in which to spend his golden years!
