Adoption Pending! Old boy Dobby is looking for a home to call his own with a human to love and no other critters. All he wants is to be happy in his last few years. This senior Doberman mix has not had the best life. Dobby has lived most his 9 years outside on a log chain. Dobby is housebroke. Dobby has a very happy personality and just wants to be loved. He would prefer a home with no other dogs and no cats! Dobby deserves to have an easy life now, no more freezing nights in the winter and scorching hot, buggy days in the summer living outside, to live indoors with his human, and be a loved senior dog. If you can give Dobby the life he deserves, please apply to adopt this senior boy! Dobby is a low energy, easy guy who would be great for a first time dog owner.
