VOTE FOR MUTTVILLE EVERY DAY THRU MAY 20
YOU can help Muttville win the opportunity to have Tim Lincecum chip in for the older dogs!
Tim will offer a special event to one of the top five winning non-profits. We sure hope his French bulldogs Cy & Kayo pick Muttville! Plus, we'll score a year’s supply of Popchips to keep our volunteers well-fed at at weekend outreach events!
Vote for MUTTVILLE every day through May 20th. Thanks!
One of our sweet mutts
Bumper
Shepherd/corgi mix | Male | Size: small
Bumper is a 12 year old corgi mix, possibly with some shepard or jack russell terrier. He was rescued from a high kill shelter by Muttville and has nothing but love for other dogs and people. Despite being completely blind and partially deaf, this little guy gets around very well. He is always able to find food and the warmest places to sleep whether it be laying in the sun or cuddling with his human. This guy is quite the explorer and enjoys going to the park and taking in all the smells.
Bumper fills the home with loving laughs as he is a silly little guy. He has learned to play with Kongs and has even mastered stairs (though he takes them very cautiously). Bumper does not walk on leash, but always sticks close by to his person, so he will do best in a home with a yard. He is housebroken if he is taken out every few hours and would do best in a quiet home where furniture is not moved around and he has room to explore. He receives love from everyone he meets and is looking for someone he wants his unconditional love.
