My story

Sitter needed: 07/05/25 - 07/12/25 Hi, my name is Dewey and I have a story to share. About 10 years ago, a really nice guy took me out of this shelter and I lived a very happy life with him. Little did I know I would end up here again, but life doesn’t always go according to plan. Here I am, looking for a new forever home to rest my well-earned grand-dad bod. I don’t need a lot in life. I like to nap, snuggle, eat, and take short walks. I also like to bark at the mail-carrier. Some say that isn’t a good hobby but I disagree. I’m not really looking for canine companions at this stage in my life, but I might be persuaded to share my space with a small, calm, female dog – as long as she isn’t too much of a pest. I don’t share my toys, I don’t share my food, but I am happy to share my love with you. I’m just a big, old, cuddle-bug of love. What do ya think? Am I your match? If you think maybe you can share a quiet home with me, please let the humans who are caring for me right now know – the sooner the better. Thanks for reading my story and I hope to hear from you soon!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Dewey, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
