Story
Meet Mr. Handsome! Mr. Handsome is the sweetest boy that came to us as a stray. He prefers to lounge around the house but likes slow strolls around the park with the occasional jog. He can be a little stubborn and does not like to be forced out of his spot. He is good around dogs, cats, and kids of any ages. On 9/5/2025, he had X-Rays done and was diagnosed with the VERY beginning stages of arthritis. From that day on, he is on Dasuquin with MSM. He is neutered and up to date on all vaccines. He is on Simparica Trio as a monthly preventative. He is ready to go to a loving home that will give him all the attention and love he deserves. If you are interested in meeting Mr. Handsome, please reach out! *We are located in Sweetwater TN but we have options to transport out of state for an additional fee*
