Paws Crossed would love to introduce you to their sweet, laid-back, senior-dog Bingo, who still has the most adorable pep in his step and is looking for a forever home to live out his glory days!

  • HE LOVES TREATS, just as much as affection. Seriously, he can smell any treats you’ve hidden in your pockets and will wag his little tail until he gets one
  • He is good with other dogs and children
  • He does have some weakness in his hind legs, but that doesn’t stop him from enjoying his daily walks or playtime
  • He would do best in a home with no stairs or that has an elevator.

“Bingo came to Paws Crossed through our awesome transport partners, Animal Aid USA, when his owner passed away and there was no family member or friend that was able to step up and take him in," said Julie Potter, Business and Development Director at Paws Crossed. “As soon as he arrived at Paws Crossed, we just knew this was one special older gentleman. He quickly became a favorite with his jaunty little walk, wiggly nub tail and silly personality."

There is nothing like the love of a senior pet. If you open your home to a senior, you will find you have filled your heart and life with so much love. Now ... who is ready for a game-of-life with Bingo!?
