Story
Bucket is eight years old now, with a little more gray in his muzzle and a little less bounce in his step, but his heart still beats with the same eagerness it always has. He spends his days behind the bars of a shelter kennel, waiting, watching, hoping. The concrete floor is cool beneath him, the walls too quiet, and though the volunteers come to give him love, it is not the same as having a family of his own.When a kind volunteer takes him for a ride, Bucket’s eyes light up. He presses his nose to the window, ears flapping in the wind, soaking in the freedom of the open road. In those moments, he forgets the cage. He forgets the years he’s spent waiting. He is just a dog again — joyful, loyal, and alive.At the dog park with his volunteer friend, Bucket bounds around, tail wagging, soaking up every ounce of attention. But when the time comes to return to his kennel, his eyes soften with longing. He doesn’t understand why no one has chosen him.You see, Bucket isn’t asking for much. He doesn’t need a house full of toys or a yard big enough to run for miles. What he craves is love — the steady, warm kind that comes from being someone’s one and only. After a lifetime of never truly having a family, Bucket just wants to spend his golden years wrapped in love, not steel bars.He would do best in a quiet home with no other pets, where he can finally be the center of someone’s world. A soft bed, gentle hands, and the sound of someone calling his name with love — that is all Bucket dreams of.For now, he waits. Every day, every night. A senior dog with so much love left to give, hoping that someone will look past the cage, past his age, and see the soul who only wants to belong.Bucket’s golden years should be filled with sunshine, car rides, and the simple joy of being loved. He’s ready. He’s waiting. He’s hoping. ***PLEASE NOTE*** A pre adoption application must be completed for any pets you are interested in adopting. Pre adoption applications can be completed online.
