Chevy’s story: The golden years can be a precious time for humans and dogs, a time of leisure and fulfillment following a lifetime of accumulated wisdom and insight. Chevy finds himself looking for a home that will allow him that precious time. Although he is technically in his “golden years,” his personality and temperament are that of a playful, friendly puppy. He has a gentle nature and delights in tossing toys into the air by himself, becoming giddy when they come back down, eager to play again. He greets everyone with a big, open smile, soft eyes, and a gently wagging tail. Chevy moves with a lively pep in his step and enjoys leisurely walks and relaxing quietly by your side. Belly rubs are an absolute favorite.

Growing older together can be rewarding for humans and dogs. Senior dogs are usually housebroken and calm, with well-established personalities. While there is generally an adjustment period in the new home, once settled, a senior dog like Chevy offers not only the opportunity to save another life, but also the opportunity to transform your own in a very positive way.
