Goofy is so loveable. He is a senior dog with health problems, but he is just so sweet and he still has energy for life – so we want to give him a chance at a happy and vibrant retirement. He loves going for a walk on leash and sniffing around, and he lopes along with great joy when he can come out of his enclosure. He is cuddly and appreciates a comfortable bed. | |
Goofy was found wandering along the roadside years ago, thin and unwell. The volunteers took him and nursed him to better health, however he still had his struggles with leishmania so he must have medication. | |
