Casper

Casper is 13 year old Maltese looking for a calm, loving adult home where he will be welcome indoors to live out the rest of his days. Casper gets along well with most other dogs and can be quite playful at times, although trying to get the ball off him is almost impossible. He loves snuggling in for a cuddle with his foster humans, his daily walks and his food! Casper can be a little anxious at first until he settles, but he responds well to kindness and patience. He is pretty quiet but very nosey and likes to stay close to his foster humans at all times. Casper settles well at night time in his own bed and is happy to sleep a large portion of the day knowing you are there. He is fully house trained and walks well on his lead; he will be tempted to chase a cat if it runs.

Casper has undergone quite the transformation since arriving in our care last month, being treated for teeth, skin, paw and ear infections simultaneously. It is vital that his new family are happy to maintain regular grooming to keep his coat in top condition and understand that he may need further treatment in the future if skin allergies flare up. Casper is deaf and shows little response to any noise at all. He is starting to get cataracts also but still has a great sense of smell and can smell his dinner from another room! As with many older dogs he also has some arthritis for which his vet has recommended a course of injections may help.

Casper has come to us towards the end of his life and we are looking for that special person/family who will give him what he has missed out on.
