He’s sweet. He’s teeny. He’s adorable. He’s 11 years old but has the face of a puppy! He’s a fan of ear rubs. He’s friendly but not overly friendly. He likes to play with toys and have carefree time. (He’s pretty spry for a senior!) He also has clear boundaries. He doesn’t like having his face messed with much. He has some resource guarding issues.
Captain was relinquished to our shelter, because his former owner could no longer care for him or afford vet care. He wasn’t in the best shape when he arrived. He had infected teeth, ear infections, and other issues, including skin problems.
Our medical team and kennel staff fixed him up and he stayed here to heal and recuperate. Being a senior, no doubt he’ll need continued care, but hopefully we got him through the worst of it. Captain is a sweet boy, who just wants a comfortable, semi quiet, permanent, home. He should go to an adult home with no small kids, and he tends to get cranky around other dogs. He would prefer the lap of a low active, kind, adopter who really only wants one dog to love on.
He’s a snuggle bug for sure and he loves to nap and be petted as he dozes off. Come to the Burbank Animal Shelter to meet Captain if you think you are a good match!
