Story
London turned 11 and got… surrendered to a shelter. Not the sort of birthday surprise anyone hopes for, least of all a gentle, steady soul like him. No wrongdoing. No misbehavior. Just the kind of “usual reasons” that break your heart precisely because they never make sense to the dog who loses everything.He tried to be brave about it, but some dogs feel loss deeply, and London is the tender sort. So a kind volunteer stepped in, offering him a soft place to land while he steadied himself and remembered what safety feels like.London’s a Poodle/Chihuahua/Dachshund mix, and seems to have inherited the best traits from each - intelligent, perceptive, affectionate, loyal, snuggly. He’s healthy, neutered, and housetrained, too. He’s lived with humans of every age and other dogs, and has never started so much as a grumble of trouble. His former owner called him “the sweetest, calmest, most gentle dog I have ever had or met,” and that’s not marketing speak. That’s the truth of him.London is the kind of elder statesman who finds joy in simple things, like choosing the perfect sunbeam or relocating from one soft bed to another just to keep life interesting. Age has granted him the enviable superpower of peacefulness. He is content to be next to you, near you, or quietly keeping watch from whatever comfortable spot he’s claimed for the afternoon.If you’re ready for a companion who won’t overwhelm your life but will quietly enrich it, London is waiting.***IN FOSTER: To meet him, please call (757) 865-0511 or email contact@animalaidsociety.org to schedule an appointment.Animal Aid Society is located at 80 Butler Farm Road, Hampton, with visiting hours from 9am to noon, including weekends and holidays.Interested?
