✨ Meet Colby, the most distinguished gentleman you could ever wish to adopt! At around 10 glorious years old and weighing in at a hearty 55–60 pounds, Colby is on a quest to find that special, calm home where he can enjoy the golden years of his life. His devoted owner is heartbroken to part with this sweet soul, as life has called them to Japan to care for a loved one. But oh, how Colby hopes to find someone just as loving! ❤️ This splendid pup has a beautiful backstory, having been rescued from Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria. Since then, he’s mastered the art of enjoying life’s simple pleasures: cozy naps, peaceful strolls, and hearty meals. With his soft, husky-like coat and a Lab-mix physique, Colby embodies the meaning of companionship. Those who appreciate the steady loyalty and gentle affection of an older dog will find endless moments of quiet joy in his presence. 🥰 Now, don’t let his age lead you to believe he’s lost his spark! Colby has a uniquely playful spirit. While he requires slow introductions to other pups, he’s ready to soak up all the love and attention from his favorite humans. He’s been to doggy daycare and showed he can enjoy social time when given the right opportunity. After all, who wouldn’t want a devoted “people puppy”? 🐶 Colby may be somewhat hard of hearing, but that only enhances his charm. He’ll serve as your little guard at the door, alerting you to visitors before flopping back down into his favorite lounging position. Outside, he greets strangers with indifferent charm, but inside, he’s all about love and soft cuddles. Easygoing and occasionally selectively obedient (gotta keep it fun, right?), Colby thrives on simple routines. The home he envisions would be serene, complete with a fenced backyard for his leisurely days. He'd be an absolute treasure for an older couple or anyone seeking a sweet companion who doesn't require daily jogging sessions. If there are grandkids, they should be a bit older, perfectly capable of giving him the love he deserves. Adopting Colby means opening your heart to a loyal friend, diving into the simplicity of companionship, grateful for quiet moments together. The rewards? Truly, they are endless! 🌈✨ To bring Colby into your life, be sure to apply through the Buddy App!
