About Hope

Hope is a wonderful girl who is 10 years young. We say young because despite her double digit age she still has plenty of energy left. Hope was actually considered hospice for a few years due to issues in her back legs. See both her back legs had old ligament tears and since both back legs were torn, surgery wasn't a viable option. So we made her hospice thinking that her legs were going to be a big issue. Turns out we were wrong! Her back legs do bother her at times but some pain meds and rest and she's back to her active self in no time. She just saw the vet again and she's still quite healthy other than the old tears in her legs. So we've decided to try and find her a home of her own. Hope is a medium sized girl and weighs 30 lbs. She is a boston terrier mix with a wonderful disposition. She loves people and other dogs. She doesn't even mind the cats!! Hope loves to chew on bones, check out all the smells in the yard, and snuggling on the couch. She can be a bit of a toy hoarder, so if you see all the dog toys are missing it's likely she's gathered them up in some secret spot. Hope is house trained and crate trained or she can be left loose while you are gone. She will bark to let you know a new dog or person has arrived, but otherwise is quiet. This girl loves to go exploring the neighborhood on walks or in car rides. She has used a wheelchair in the past for long walks but doesn't need it for short walks or just hanging out at home. Hope is an amazing girl looking for a home that will shower her with love and treats. We do think that a home with children 12 and above would best since her legs do hurt sometimes. Hope will also need a home with no steps or very little steps to make life easier for her to get around. If you think you can give Hope the family she's looking for please apply at www.pawpatroldayton.com/adopt. Hope's adoption fee is $50. She is spayed, up-to-date on vaccines, dewormed, flea treated, microchipped, and heartworm tested negative.
