Zemma here. I am the sweetest 10 year old lady looking for a quiet retirement home. My two favourite things are balls and car rides.
Although I still have the young dog energy, I do have to take EXTRA it easy. I have this spinal degeneration thing so I need to take it easy so I don’t hurt myself or cause more damage. I take medication 2-3 times a day to help with pain.
Because of the spinal degeneration, I do walk a little funny. To protect my toes, my foster mom got me these boots that I wear when I’m out walking on harder surfaces like cement, rocks and pavement. I don’t mind them, I know they help me. But when I’m inside with no boots it’s very helpful to have carpets out for me as I do slip and get myself stuck, and sometimes need help to get back up. I can’t do stairs too well, I’m ok with 2-3 steps, any more and I do need someone to help give me a boost up (I’m ok going down but I do avoid stairs as I know I have troubles).
I LOVE my ball and I will always try to get you to throw it because what’s better than a ball right?? But foster mom says I can’t play too much because of my back issue. She gets a sad face when she always tells me this because it’s my favourite thing in the whole world.
I am currently chilling with my 14 year old foster dog sister. I like her lots. I also like meeting new dog friends. But I don’t like it when the other dogs snap or growl at me. I am chill with most dogs as long as they are chill with me. I do stick up for myself. I’ve met some cats the last few months, I’m ok with them, I get VERY curious and tend to follow them around. But when the cat tells me to back off I usually do.
I have a 12 year old foster human brother and he’s pretty cool. I’ve been around littler kids and I like them too but because I don’t have much control of my back end sometimes I can knock them over, so bigger kids is better for me.
Well that’s me in a nutshell. If you think I’d be your perfect retirement dog, please send an application to meet me!!
