Meet Peanut Butter, a senior gentleman who is ready to turn the page on his past and start a new chapter with a forever home of his own.     Peanut Butter was found as a stray alongside Jelly, who we believe is his daughter. Sadly, no one came forward to claim them. Peanut Butter is people-friendly and gets along well with other dogs, provided they respect his preference for a more relaxed lifestyle. He's not interested in roughhousing or rowdy play and prefers a quieter home. He also appears to be housebroken. He tested positive for heartworm, but K-9 Lifesavers is providing treatment, and he will be as good as new and ready to find his forever home.      Peanut Butter would love to find someone who appreciates the special charm of a senior dog. Could you be the person he has been waiting for? Apply today and give Peanut Butter a chance to spend his golden years in a loving home.
