Gizmo — A Tiny Senior With a Big Heart

Hi, I'm Gizmo! I'm a 12-yearold, 8-pound Pomeranian who was rescued by SBRET after losing my home. I'm a gentle little senior looking for a quiet, loving place to spend my golden years.

I have tracheal collapse, but right now I only have a small cough each day and don't need medication. I take thyroid meds and will need occasional bloodwork. I had a dental and now have just two teeth, so my tongue hangs out — everyone says it's adorable. I eat softened kibble with no trouble.

I sleep in my x-pen, enjoy napping, and like being near my humans. My hearing and vision aren't perfect, so I need someone who can keep me safe, especially around furniture and stairs. I'm not a cuddler, but I love belly rubs and being close by.

I'm doing great with housetraining and walk nicely on a leash, though I zigzag a bit. I like calm, older dogs. Car rides make me nervous, so a low-travel home is best.

I'm neutered, microchipped, had a dental, and I'm up to date on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.
My adoption fee is $100.

If you're ready to love a sweet senior who just wants comfort, kindness, and a soft bed, I'm your boy.
