Behavioral issues

My story

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

Woody is a very sweet, very loving senior dog with a lot of life left in him. While he does not enjoy being pet, he loves to snuggle and be close to his person at all times. Despite having chronic pain, he still enjoys walks and adventures. He is mostly indifferent to other animals as long as they give him space, but will defend his territory if needed and can therefore not live with persistent or reactive animals.

For 15 years, Woody was in a bonded pair with his sibling, who passed in November 2024. Since then, he has needed a full-time human companion. I have been unable to work outside the home because of this and can no longer provide for my own basic needs while also caring for him. He gets extremely stressed with left alone and struggles increasingly with incontinence. He has a heart condition and takes multiple medications daily.

I love him deeply and hope to find someone who can enjoy his companionship in the time he has remaining.
