About Happy

🐾 Hi... I'm Happy! 🐾 Yep, that's really my name -- and everyone says it fits me perfectly. I'm a 9-year-old pitbull with a handsome charcoal grey coat and a few dapper tan accents that make me look extra distinguished. I'm basically a big, smooshy marshmallow. I arrived as a stray, so my past is a bit of a mystery. What I do know is that I'm ready for a soft couch, kind humans, and lots of love. You might notice my adorable little wobbly walk -- it gives me a bit of extra character and makes people smile wherever I go. The vet took some X-rays and let us know I have LS Disease and Hip Dysplasia, which means my joints need a little help staying comfortable. With medication and a cozy place to relax, though, I'm doing just fine. Honestly, I'm not training for a marathon anyway -- I'm much more of a couch potato. My favorite things include: * Leaning into people for pets * Showing off my smooshy, slobbery cheeks * Napping like a professional * Being told I'm a good boy (which I am, obviously) The humans here say I have excellent manners--and my foster home agrees! Since settling into foster care, I've had zero accidents in the house (yep, I'm a total gentleman -- I go straight to the doggy door whenever I need to do my business), and I've blended in seamlessly with a home that has several other dogs and even a young teenager. I've proven myself to be easygoing, respectful, and just happy to be part of the family. I've done well meeting other dogs and even cats, and I'm such a laid-back guy that I'd likely do great with kids too -- as long as they remember I'm a gentleman with creaky hips and not a jungle gym. Right now I'm just hoping for a soft place to land. I'm currently living it up in my foster home, staying comfy and soaking up love while I wait for my perfect match. If you've got a cozy couch, a little patience for an older gentleman, and room in your heart for a very mushy, very happy dog, I'm definitely your guy. Please call the shelter's Front Office to speak with them about next steps if you'd like to give me a chance!
