p;rsquo;ve been dreaming of a sweet, quirky old man to keep you company, then allow us to introduce you to Grampa Milton—lovingly known as Gramps. He’s a dapper older gentleman with a heart of gold, a charming head tilt, and just enough pep in his step to keep things interesting. Gramps is looking for a cozy home where he can live out his golden years soaking up the good life—think naps in sunbeams, strolls around the block (at a dignified pace, of course), and TV marathons with his favorite human. He’ll even throw in a few old man zoomies now and then just to keep you smiling. This wise boy is perfectly content curling up in his crate with a plush bed, but his favorite spot? At your feet while you work—he's the original remote coworker. Now, let’s talk about that adorable little head tilt. We don’t know exactly what caused it (Gramps says some mysteries are better left unsolved), but it could be related to geriatric vestibular disease or another neurological quirk. The good news? It doesn’t bother him one bit—it just adds to his endless charm. Picture the ultimate "interested in what you're saying" face. All the time. Recently, Gramps was diagnosed with early kidney failure. While we don’t know exactly how much time he has left, what we do know is that he deserves the very best life for every single day he has. He’s already started a special diet and is being closely monitored—and right now, he’s showing no signs of slowing down. We're hopeful he’ll be with us, and his future family, for quite a while yet. Gramps is heartworm positive too, but no worries there—his treatment is fully covered by the rescue. He just needs a loving place to recover and be treated like the royalty he knows he is. Because we don’t know much about his past, we think he’d do best in a home with older kids who understand that senior gentlemen value their nap time and prefer not to be startled mid-snooze. (Honestly, same.) Gramps loves other dogs and insists on greeting every person he meets—he’s truly offended if someone walks by without saying hello. Honestly, he’s a bit of a local celebrity. If you're looking for a loyal, heart-stealing best friend to keep you company, remind you when it’s snack time, and be your ultimate couch buddy—Gramps is your guy. We are looking for a special adopter to give him the life he deserves, or a special foster willing to shower him with love. Ready to add this classy senior to your life? We’ve reduced Gramps’ adoption fee to just $100 in hopes of finding him that perfect family to cherish him. Apply today at pipsrescue and come meet the man, the myth, the legend—Grampa Milton.
