Howdy folks, my name is Pappy.

That’s the name the foster dad and mom gave me. You see, nobody knows much about me because I was dumped over the fence at a shelter after they had closed. They found me sad and just sitting by the front door when the shelter staff got to work the next morning. They think I am about 10 years old, but please don't hold that against me because I still have a lot of love to give.

I am a pretty good lookin dude, don't you think, especially in my classy Americana neck scarf.  I am a lighter salt and pepper with natural ears, that can express my thoughts, and a docked tail.  I am not a big boy weighing in at just 17 lbs.

My foster dad says I am a “lounge lizard”! I have several short periods of fiestyness each day, like play growling/barking and chasing my fur brother Slater- Pappy style! I have a certain swagger in my walk because I must have had some nerve damage/compression in my hind leg. However, that doesn’t stop me from getting up and down off the back deck.

I lost a few teeth in my dental, but let me tell you that certainly has not stopped me when it comes mealtime. I sometimes try to convince my fur sister to “share”. I like to sit outside in the warm sun, play “hand”, and just relax! I am housetrained, crate trained, up to date on all my shots and on heartworm preventative.

I would probably do best in a home with an older couple or someone who has older children. I think that I might like to have a “fur” brother or sister as long as he or she is not overly dominant or rough. I ride well in the car too.

If would like to have a mature, good-look guy as a devoted and loving best friend, then I’m your man!  Just put "Pappy" on your application.
