🌟 Meet the charming Thistle, a sweet Sheltie who’s looking for a warm and loving home! Thistle is approximately 7-8 years young, a neutered gentleman who has received all his vaccinations. This shy little fellow has a heart of gold, especially when he warms up to women—he's just waiting for that special someone to help him shine! 💖 Having come from a challenging background, Thistle will need a bit more time and patience to open up. He's a creature of comfort, and who could blame him? He’s had a rough start, but with gentle encouragement he’s starting to relax and enjoy life. Just imagine him sitting in the warm sunshine, resting his head on a caring lap—oh, the serenity! ☀️ While he does need a little dental work—don’t worry, all expenses will be covered—we are waiting a month or two after his neuter for that. Thistle is learning to appreciate gourmet dining, thanks to some tasty treats mixed in with his kibble! 🥳 Shelties like Thistle are naturally shy, and he truly needs an adopter with Sheltie experience. A calm and loving environment, ideally with adults home most of the time or compatible canine companions to guide him, would be perfect. He might be a bit overwhelmed by school-age children, so a tranquil household is likely what will help him thrive. Adding this senior dog to your household means giving him the chance of a lifetime—and let’s be honest, you’ll earn some serious sparkle points for it! ✨ If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this precious soul, just know that Thistle is waiting for someone like you! Remember, a completed application is required before any conversation about adopting Thistle, so apply through the Buddy App to help him find his forever home!
