Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hey, is anyone looking for a laid back fellow who will be a quiet companion and not cause a speck of trouble? Here's your guy.
Mugsy is a 13 year old senior who wore out his welcome in his previous home. It's a shame because these pups suffer the lose of their families just like we would if we suddenly found everyone we've ever known and loved disappear from our lives. And dogs like Mugsy don't deserve to be tossed aside like that.
So here's the deal, Mugsy is losing his eyesight and is a little hard of hearing but he is absolutely no trouble in the house. He had complete bloodwork and is in good health. These wee ones can live long and healthy lives so don't let his age scare you.
He wants nothing more than sitting quietly by your side. He is a little vocal when he knows you are prepping his meals but it is quite endearing. Otherwise, you dont even know he's around. Mugsy would make a nice companion for a lonely senior or a family with older kids who have a quieter lifestyle. He doesn't ask for much, just comfy snuggles when you are relaxing and his much anticipated dinners. He may eventually go blind or even deaf but by then he will be used to you and your home so it wouldn't be an issue. All he asks is for your love in return.
We keep our website current so if you see a pet listed here you can be pretty certain it is still available. Send in an application located here and we will be in touch. (www.allstarpetrescue.com).
There is an adoption fee if you decide to take one of our "All Star Pets" home. We prefer homes within a 50 mile radius of Linden, NJ.
