Meet Russell! Russell is an almost 12 year old shihtzu. He is your classic old man, a very lazy guy who can be a bit grumpy, but is harmless (and toothless).
Russell has some senior guy medical issues. He does have a heart murmur that requires 3 pills a day, so he'll need someone that can afford his medications and keep up with the occasional echocardiogram to check on his heart. He is also a very picky eater with a sensitive stomach, not uncommon of a guy his age, and it's hard to find things he likes to keep weight on him. He is still underweight.
Despite his quirks, Russell is a sweet gentleman and foster mom loves him to pieces. To his person, he is as loyal as they come. He will follow you everywhere. He doesn't love cuddles but he loves to stay close to you. He would prefer a low key, quiet home where he can nap without much interruption. He isn't a good fit for rowdy dogs or small children. Russell doesn't need much attention but he prefers to be around his person all the time. His perfect situation would be a very relaxed home where his person can be home with him most of the time. He deserves to be loved and adored for all the time he has left.
