Buckey - German Shorthaired Pointer and Pointer Dog for Adoption in Thompson Falls, Montana

This beautiful and mellow boy needs help! He was adopted from another shelter 6 years ago as a pup, and he lived happily ever after until his owner died. Now he needs another home and he's 7 years old. He is a German Shorthaired Pointer mix, possibly mixed with lab or another type of pointer. He is about 40 lb and in very good health and he actually likes cats. He does great with other dogs as well even small dogs that bark at him. He's a pretty mellow guy that's just looking to spend the last few years of his life with someone who wants a mellow lap dog that's 40 lb. The first picture shows him curled up in a small bed designed for small dogs and he thinks he is one. Very nice boy ready to go home and all medical work is done. Nothing is needed to add except love. His adoption fee is only $200 to help us with his transportation and his medical costs.
