Hi, my name is Colby. I came to the shelter because my owner could no longer care for me. I'm a very sweet and gentle boy. I'm all done with the puppy stages and am now well into my mellow years. I'd be a great companion for someone who wants a relaxed companion to just hang out together. I should do well with supervised children ages 5 years and up. I'm an older gentleman and can't always keep up with the antics of children, so any kids in the home need to understand how to be gentle and easy going with me. If they start to play rough I can't easily get away from them. I have been around both dogs and cats and done well, but still prefer other animals who are a little more laid back like myself for the same reasons I prefer calmer children. I do have some age related medical concerns that my new family will need to be prepared to manage. Interested adopters, please speak to the shelter's vet department for more information.I do need some gentle activities to keep myself healthy, but can't handle high intensity exercise. Older fellas like myself are often the cream of the crop and are the perfect companions for most types of families. I'm looking for that special family who will make my golden years the best of my life!
