Why I need a new home

Found or abandoned

My story

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


Ralph was abandoned as a pup, found by a friend of my grandson and kept by the friend in his room temporarily. My grandson stepped in and said his mother, my daughter, would take him, which she did, and kept him with her through thick and thin until she could no longer take care of him. She is homeless and that is why Ralph ended up at an animal shelter that could not offer him a place to stay — there was no room for him, they were filled to capacity and I was told in no uncertain terms that I must pick him up. That is how he ended up with me. As you can see from his photos, he is a very handsome fellow. He is also healthy, strong and usually a perfect gentleman, except when it comes to cats, one of which lives in the house. There is no fence around the house’s yard, which means I have to walk him 3-4 times a day. I am 74 years old and not up for the task, but someone younger and more resilient than me could give ralph the loving permanent family he deserves!
