About

Let's be honest: Cosmo isn't your typical adoptable dog, and that's exactly what makes him special.
This quirky little guy came to us from an overwhelming hoarding situation with over 100 dogs. Life wasn't kind to Cosmo early on. He lost his tail in the chaos, leaving him with an adorable little nub that wiggles when he's feeling brave. He's a bit of a mixed bag genetically, which gives him a wonderfully unique look that grows on you fast.
Cosmo is approaching his golden years and carries some understandable baggage. He's nervous in new situations, needs time to trust, and can be touchy when he's overwhelmed. He's not going to bound up to strangers or win any congeniality contests. But here's the thing: Cosmo deserves a chance to know what safety feels like.
We're looking for someone patient, experienced, and ready to appreciate a dog who's a little left of center. Someone who understands that the best relationships take time and that earning Cosmo's trust will be one of the most rewarding things they've ever done. Cosmo needs a quiet home, a predictable routine, and an adopter who sees his quirks as character, not flaws. In return, you'll get a one-of-a-kind companion with a story worth telling and a heart that, given time, will open up for you.
