Pomeranians are known for their spunk, liveliness, intelligence, and loyalty, often seeming much larger in spirit than their tiny size suggests. These pups make wonderful companions for families or individuals who enjoy a charming, people‑oriented little dog - just like Lotso! What to Love about Lotso: Lotso may be hard of hearing, have a collapsed trachea, and not able to see well out of one eye, but none of that dims his loving spirit. He is potty trained as long as he’s taken out every few hours and will also use pee pads in his crate. Because of his age and needs, he’s looking for someone who is home most of the day and can give him the steady routine and companionship he thrives on! This tiny gentleman is wonderful with everyone—from gentle kids to grandparents—and anyone willing to hold him like a little baby instantly becomes his favorite person! He gets along beautifully with dogs and cats, though he’s not playful; he’s a true couch potato who lives for naps, cuddles, and being your loyal TV buddy during long Football Sundays. Lotso doesn’t need a fenced yard, but he shouldn’t be left outside unattended. He enjoys short, leisurely walks and loves riding in his stroller to get some fresh air. When he’s not snoozing, he’s quietly following his person from room to room, offering soft kisses and hoping for a meatball treat—his favorite reward and the secret to getting him to take his medicine. He rarely barks, only giving a little morning reminder when he’s ready to come out of his crate. Lotso has come such a long way and is ready to spend his golden years in a calm, loving home where he can be cherished, cuddled, and adored. Lotso is a tender, affectionate senior who just wants a warm lap, gentle hands, and a family to love him through his twilight years!
