This sweet boy was returned to us after his family situation changed.

Ernie is a soulful and gentle dog who is looking for a home with someone who can give him love and encouragement. He is eager to bond and loves to be near his person, either lying at your feet or nearby on his bed.

Ernie’s world is quiet, hearing little of what goes on around him, so he uses his other heightened senses as he quickly becomes attuned to what’s happening. He has is a little visually impaired, so some situations require assistance from his human, but he is very well adjusted and this does not prevent him from living a full life.

He’ll let you know when it’s time to go potty and he also likes a long gentle stroll. Though mellow and reserved, he’ll have small bursts of excitement, like when he realizes you are home or when it’s mealtime. It’s so cute to watch him prance up to you!

At the dog park, he’s a gentleman with good doggy social skills and he is also very well-mannered inside the home. He does not demand much attention and is content to hang out in his bed.

Ernie is great with dogs and cats alike. He would make a wonderful companion for someone who works from home or who wants to take their dog to work, but Ernie is also fine on his own. All he needs is a warm, soft place to lay his head.

Ernie is about 10 years old and weighs about 25 pounds.
