Meet Nextel, affectionately known as Nexi, a sweet senior gentleman who believes life is best enjoyed under a cozy blanket and curled up next to his favorite people.
In fact, if you can't find him, don't panic -just check the nearest blanket. This clever little guy has mastered the art of covering himself up and creating the perfect snuggle cave!
Nexi is:
?? Housebroken
?? Crate trained
?? Leash trained but prefers to wander and explore in a fenced yard
?? Lap trained (his favorite certification!)
?? Great with other dogs
?? A champion cuddler
?? Not: cat or kid-tested
Nexi would also love a home where someone is around most of the time. He's happiest with his people nearby and prefers not to be left alone for long periods.
He knows a few basic commands, though he appreciates gentle encouragement and praise. After all, at 12 years old, he's earned the right to move at his own adorable pace.
Nexi does have a heart condition that is well managed with medication, and due to his age and medical needs, his veterinarian advised against neutering.
What Nexi is really searching for is simple: a soft blanket, a warm lap, and a family who will cherish every cuddle and every sweet senior moment. If your home could use a little extra love - and a hidden dog under your throw blanket - Nexi may be the perfect match.
If you'd like to take Nexi home, please fill out an adoption application at this link - https://animalalliesrescue.org/dog-application. The adoption fee is $150 and covers all expenses needed to prepare dogs like this one for their forever homes. By the time you meet them, they've already been spayed/neutered (if age-appropriate) and microchipped. They've been checked by a veterinarian and are up to date on necessary vaccinations, including Rabies and DHLPP. They have also been tested for heartworm and tick-borne diseases and have started heartworm and flea preventative medication. Some of our dogs have even undergone extensive medical care to ensure they're ready for a happy, healthy life with you!
