My story

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

Hello I am Michelangelo! I like to keep an eye on my people and am really attached to my foster mom. I pretty much follow her schedule and keep my eye on her all day. I used to be sad when she would have to go out, but really happy when I get to go too. I just want to be around someone all day : )
I have several favorite toys and enjoy playtime. Sometimes I have a hard time jumping up to sit near my foster mom and she needs to help me up, but have been doing pretty good about that lately. I enjoy walks but not too long.
I like older children and meeting new people-watch for my sweet tail wags!

I am a very laid-back dog. I am friendly and loving towards everyone I meet. I love to be loved, but I am not needy. I am excellent company. I am not a big barker, and I am a good watch-dog. I am a little hard of hearing, so you might need to use vibrations or light to get my attention.

I do take seizure medicine and am on a special diet for my stomach-please ask the adoption team for more information on my needs!

My adoption fee of $300 includes up-to-date vaccinations, dewormer, and heartworm/flea prevention. Plus, a microchip that is already registered to you! What more could you ask for?

If you'd like to meet me, please fill out an application on our website, PawmettoLifeline.org. Adoptions are BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. Please fill out the online application, and you will be contacted if you are approved and are a good fit for one of our adoptable pets.
