About Wilbur

Meet Wilbur. This gentle little senior dog has the sweetest soul, simply looking for a soft place to land and someone to love through his golden years. He recently made the journey up from Mexico with his buddy Clifford, soaking in his new surroundings with quiet charm. Wilbur's unique character shines through his toothless grin and slightly crooked jaw, adding to his irresistible appeal. His little tongue always peeking out gives him an adorably endearing expression that’s hard to resist. A very low-key companion, he loves to be near his person, enjoying the simple comfort of a cozy home. He also shares a fondness for cuddling with his buddies Clifford and Douglas and would likely thrive with another gentle dog companion. Well-mannered and polite, Wilbur knows how to use a doggy door and is well potty-trained. He’s also wonderfully quiet, rarely barking, and is easygoing enough that you might not even notice he’s around. If you have a soft spot for senior dogs and a cozy corner to share, Wilbur could be the perfect match for you. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
