🌟 Ladies and gentlemen, gather round! Meet the remarkable Umberto, a senior Shih Tzu who's ready to embark on a fabulous new journey without those pesky little hitchhikers we all know as fleas! After a summer of flea festivities, this sweet boy has finally shed his burden and is ready for a brighter, flea-free future! ✨ Now, Umberto is not just any senior dog; oh no! This dapper gentleman has endured quite a transformation. Shaved and cleaned up, he’s a fresh, lovable companion who has said goodbye to those matted days. At an impressive age of 10-12 years, he’s wise, calm, and just waiting for someone to appreciate all the love he has to give. 🐾 Good news, dear future adopter! Umberto has been getting his medical check-up, and while he is dealing with some early chronic kidney disease, he’s a trooper with a heart full of love. He drinks a lot of water and needs to go outside more frequently, so for those who enjoy a little outdoor adventure, he’s the canine companion for you! Just imagine those loving outings—Umberto would pee for a LOOOONG time, giving you an opportunity to soak up nature together! 🌳💧 This charming fellow is housebroken in his foster home, making him a wonderful fit for anyone looking for a well-mannered companion. He has a hearty appetite, enjoys the company of other dogs, and is just the easiest little guy to love. He'll need regular veterinary care, grooming, and of course, flea and tick prevention to keep that smile shining brightly! 🐶❤️ Umberto may be quiet, but the love he brings is anything but—he’s ready to fill your home with joy! Interested in bringing this sweet soul into your life? Then make sure to apply to adopt Umberto through the Buddy App and be part of his new chapter! 📲✨ And now, a little word about the organization dedicating their hearts to these sweet souls—they’re small, all-volunteer, and focused on rescuing local dogs from area shelters.
