About Snoopy

Meet Snoopy, a charming small dog around 5-7 years old and weighing 25 lbs. It's hard to believe he was once left tied up outside a vet’s office, but he’s ready for a fresh start after being passed around several homes without the stability he craved. Snoopy is an extrovert who loves interacting with people and has a collection of toys that he enjoys. He prefers to initiate physical affection, so building trust with him is essential. Snoopy faces mild arthritis and hip dysplasia, managed with medication, and he appreciates a gentle touch. He thrives in an adult-only home where he'll feel secure, as he has mixed feelings about men and can be a bit guarded at first. Friendly with calm dogs, Snoopy can coexist nicely with them as long as they respect his space. He currently resides in Brooklyn, NY, and is available for adoption both locally and out-of-state, provided potential adopters can meet him in person. Ready to make a difference in Snoopy’s life?
