Biography
Billy, what a handsome boy. And 15 yrs young. This darling boy is a blue and tan double dapple most likely.
Billy was very ill and had pneumonia. Also we found he has an enlarged heart, but with medications, he is doing great and his pneumonia is all cleared up now.
During his dental he did lose several teeth. Poor little guy.
Billy is a very sweet boy, loves his human, but does have some hearing problems. So he needs to be warned before you touch him, or he will startle very easily. He needs a nice calm retirement home, where he can spend the days relaxing in the sun shine. But Billy also has a playful side. He has been caught trying to play with some of the younger dogs.
Billy rides very nicely in the car, is leash trained, and doesn't seem to mind sleeping in a crate next to foster mom's bed. But he has been allowed to take naps in the big bed and of course he loves it!
Again, Billy will need a special home where love comes unconditionally. He is located in SW PA. and during the month of June, his adoption fee is waived. So get your application in right away.
