Story
Meet Big Tony! This 13 pound, approx 10 year old, mixed breed Elder does not need a big house, just a big world. He likes to be out in it. A yard is not a must, but 2 walks a day a least, every day is required for this guy as he loves and needs his mind and body exercise. We never really know the true age of our adult dogs, but we do know Tony is an active Senior! Big T loves his donut bed, and snuggles on the big people bed. Couch time is great too, but he'll needs help up & down (doggie steps are great for him). Tony would love a home where he is allowed everywhere. He also would love a doggie buddy. He is learning / trying to play. He may even snuggle with another dog if possible! He likes attention, but shares nicely. He does need some space to eat his food. He's not keen on sharing his dinner, and who really is! Big Tony i s fantastic. He is loving and smart. He listens and learns, and he is food motivated! Tony loves a walk, loves his friends ( dog and human, still figuring out the rabbit in his foster's home), loves to snuggle, loves to explore and he loves a good run in the park. He prefers to do his bizness in someone else's yard so make sure you've got your poopy bags handy! He loves meeting new people, but can be cautious at first. When Big T arrived at the shelter he needed his eye removed and his jaw was a bit unstable. He had some rotten teeth removed when at the vet for his eye surgery, and his jaw is doing much better now. He also came with us with skin issues, but we are working with getting him healthy with good nutrition and its working. He is house trained, that said Big T needs a consistent routine and frequent outdoor visits like any Senior does! Once Big Tony knows you're his person he will follow you everywhere. He's great when out and about as he's the perfect walking companion. Big T has made many new friends here in Portland with his wonderful personality and his handsome looks. Slow approaches are helpful as he does have limited sight, but once he's comfortable, he's Mister Social. Big Tony is a really happy little guy who's ready to find his forever home! Btw, he is a big Harry Styles fan, so that helps if you are too. ;) Every Underdog has been spayed/neutered, micro-chipped, and is up to date on vaccinations.
