My story

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

Xylo: Snack Connoisseur, Nap Enthusiast, Full-Time Heart-Stealer

Meet Xylo, the 8-year-old senior with a PhD in Snuggology and a minor in Treatonomics. He has been patiently waiting for a home with a heart that is overflowing with the kind of love that will make every day feel brighter. He's a loyal, thoughtful, gentleman who wants nothing more than to share his days with someone who will love him in return.

Xylo takes his time to trust, but once he does, he becomes a devoted companion who will sit beside you, curl up in your lap, and let you know—wordlessly—just how much he loves being with you. He’s a whiz at basic obedience and loves learning new tricks in exchange for treats!

He enjoys the simple things: soft sunbeams, leisurely walks on the scenic route to sniff, rolling around in the dirt, and a cozy bed in a safe corner of your home. Xylo also loves stuffed toys, gentle play, and giving kisses. He gets along well with dogs and cats and thrives on friendship, comfort, and snuggles.

If your life needs a snack-motivated, goofy, loveable companion with a flair for dramatic napping, Xylo is your guy. Adopt him, and prepare for laughter, cuddles, unconditional love, and the occasional burst of playful chaos!
