Story
Silky sweetness is all we can say about this very special senior. He was picked up as a stray and taken to the Apple Valley Shelter. We were there picking up another dog and took him too. This handsome fella is about 10 years old, seems to be fine with other dogs his own size and is ready for a loving home to spend his golden years. He’s quiet and independent. A quiet home where he can spend his golden years is our wish for this cutie. You can see more of Nick on our Instagram page: @thebrittanyfoundation. We do require visits here to our rescue and in-person home checks, so adoptions are limited to the Los Angeles, CA area.
