About Dante

Dante is a white pittie mix with an irresistible grin and a heart full of love. At 13 years young, he's searching for a new family after losing his mom to cancer, which has been a tough transition for him. Dante has always been a loving companion, having grown up in a home with many pets, including dogs and cats, so he’s very comfortable living with other animals. This gentle soul enjoys getting outside for walks, even if he’s a bit of a senior gentleman now. Dante appreciates companionship and loves soaking up attention from his people. He’s easygoing, rides well in the car, and knows how to relax in his dog bed. Recently checked by a veterinarian, Dante is up to date with his vaccinations. While he has experienced some stiffness in his legs due to a prior knee replacement and elevated liver enzymes, he still enjoys his daily strolls. He's looking for an adopter who understands the needs of senior dogs and values the warmth they offer. Dante wants nothing more than a cozy home, a warm bed, and someone to share his golden years with. He might be a little gray around the muzzle, but he has a goofy grin that shows he’s still full of life. If you see the beauty in a senior dog like Dante, you could be the perfect match. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
