There is truly nothing more frustrating in dog rescue than when we get a call from a shelter that a dog who is microchipped to us has been located but the owner is not responding. That’s what happened to Winston. Winston got adopted as an older puppy 8 YEARS ago. We know who adopted him. But they are ignoring us. So we can only assume that he was dumped. Winston is about 9 years old. He’s a brindle mutt with a gray muzzle. He’s very sweet and his tail wags gently but he’s so confused. He lived 8 years with his family & now they are gone. Winston needs a forever home. He needs a family who appreciates him & will love him for the rest of his life. He is good with dogs, great on a leash & is a gentle soul. Please consider opening your home to Winston. He needs to spend his golden years with the security of a forever home. Winston is part of our Senior Soulmate Program. If he is adopted by a senior citizen, a generous donor will sponsor his adoption fee. All of our dogs are spayed or neutered, up to date on age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped and if over 6 months of age, heartworm tested and on heartworm preventative in their foster home. We require an approved application to meet any of our dogs. We do not have a shelter location and will not arrange a meeting without an approved application. We strive to make sure the bios provided for our dogs are complete and accurate; we do understand that mistakes happen, however, so if you absolutely cannot find the answer to your question in the dog's bio, you can contact us for more information. We require a home visit for each dog we adopt out, so we adopt within a 2 hour radius of Dayton, OH. If you are outside of this radius, we encourage you to contact your local rescue or shelter.
