WRINKLES - IRISH SETTER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Irish Setter / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 450. Meet Wrinkles, a 10-pound 2 yr old Irish Terrier mix with a heart as big as his curious, soulful eyes. At just a year old, this pint-sized pup may have earned his name from the adorable folds on his expressive face, each one telling a story of resilience and hope. Wrinkles is a shy boy, still learning to trust the world around him after what might have been a tough start in life. His past may have left him cautious, but his spirit is far from broken. This independent little guy is slowly finding his way, thanks to the love and companionship of other dogs who show him that humans can be kind. You’ll catch a glimpse of his budding joy when his tiny tail wags as you walk through the door—a small but mighty sign that he’s ready to open his heart. . Ever the resourceful pup, Wrinkles buries his food tray under blankets, perhaps a heartbreaking habit from a time when he felt the need to save for later. He rarely finishes a meal in one go, but his careful nibbling only adds to his charm. This sweet, reserved boy is a treasure waiting to shine. With patience, love, and a gentle hand, Wrinkles will blossom into a loyal companion who repays every ounce of kindness with an eternity of devotion. Wrinkles will do best in a single family home with people there often to help him feel secure. Another confident dog would be wonderful!
