AVAILABLE Senior Hounds

** ADOPTED! **

Please help us welcome Igor to the Sanctuary family! Igor is a 8 yr old Portuguese Podengo mix from Portugal & he came to the US with help from our friends at Bring Portuguese Podengos to Light. Even though his passport says 6, I think he may be around 8 based on that sweet old man face. I think those eyes have seen a lot over the years. Igor, as you can see, is great with kids & is an all-around super dog. He arrived on our black dog flight on Feb 29 & is being fostered in VA, but he's still looking for a forever family. If you think you've got enough soft dog beds for this adorable old fella, submit an application!  

Guine is an absolute beauty, a rare Podengo Orito who's 8 years old. She was forgotten in a municipal pound in the Azores but she's forgotten no more! This little girl is currently in the US & being fostered in VA, but can travel for the right family. She's sweet, petite, & constantly wags her tail when given attention. She's seriously an awesome little girl. Guine wants a home with no cats & also no female dogs, males are ok.  She needs a yard to exercise with a minimum of a 5 ft fence. If interested in giving this middle aged girl a spot on your sofa, send us a message! 

Leon may not be a sighthound (in fact he's a scenthound), but he was in need of a soft place to go & we couldn't say no. 

Leon is about as perfect as they get! He's great with other dogs, cats, & even young kids! He's just an all-around perfect fella!

Leon does have chronic issues with one of his ears & it will need continuous maintenance to ensure it doesn't get infected again. After consulting three vets, we decided not to put him thru surgery, whch wasn't a guarantee to take care of his problem with drainage.
