About Finley

Finley is a 14-year-old Dandie Dinmont Terrier who was surrendered by his family due to their own medical issues, showing great love in wanting him to thrive in a better situation. Although he’s faced challenges with this transition, Finley is revealing his spirit. He enjoys lounging on his orthopedic bed, where he can keep an eye on household activities from his cozy spot. This senior gentleman loves food and prefers a quiet environment where he can relax, making him a true couch potato. He would do best in a home without small children, as he isn’t tolerant of their energetic antics. Finley is leash trained and needs reminders to go outside for potty breaks, and he sleeps quietly in his kennel at night. If you can provide a soft place for him to enjoy his golden years, he would be forever grateful. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
