Description:
THIS guy! If it isn’t love at first sight for you- then you might be a heartless MONSTER, because this GUY is an angel! Full of life and love, José wants nothing more than to hang with his little brother, Harley, and be by your side ready to happily receive any and all pets, rubs, kisses, etc.

Though José keeps things cool and calm (unless a walk/the outside is involved), he has his moments of neediness and is an expert with the pleading puppy-dog eyes and the most heartbreaking little cry! And while this matter usually resolves once a few dozen kisses atop his perfect little head are doled out, he can be a bit persistent with his cries for attention when he and Harley are in need of affection at the same time. :)) 

José and Harley are a bonded pair (Harley has only known life with José), and will need to go to a furever home together. We know this is a lot to ask, but you literally couldn’t ask for a better, chiller pair of dogs! They love all humans and seem to get along great with other dogs and cats! 

José is neutered and up-to-date on shots! While he may not really show it, José is a ‘senior’ and, at times, exhibits some stiffness in his joints which can be managed with supplements designed specifically for senior dog + joint care! José’s coat (and joints!) would also benefit from Fish oil/Omega-3 oil supplements, as he is prone to dandruff and dryness. 

José has what’s colloquially known as a ‘cherry eye’ on his left eye. Though it can sometimes itch, it is merely a cosmetic quirk for sweet José. Surgery is available to ‘correct’ most cherry eye cases, however, its risks can sometimes outweigh the benefits, but it is definitely something you can discuss with your vet!
