Theo Deserves More than a Second Chance — He Deserves a Place to Call Home

Theo’s story could have ended at the shelter. Found as a stray, this senior Pit Bull Terrier waited at The Animal Foundation, but no one came forward for him. When his commitment date arrived, Animal Network stepped in, giving him another opportunity to find the person who will see him as more than an older dog with medical challenges.

Now, Theo needs a lifetime foster home. At approximately 8 years or older, he has a neurological condition that gives him a distinctive head tilt and knee issues that can no longer be treated with surgery. Animal Network says he is happy and comfortable with pain medication, and the rescue hopes to find him a quiet, low-stress home where he can enjoy the companionship and care he deserves.

The Right Home for Theo

Theo isn’t looking for a busy household. Animal Network would like to place him in an adult-only home without children, ideally as the only pet. His compatibility with other dogs and cats is unknown, so a home where he doesn’t have to navigate those introductions is the rescue’s preference.

He is housetrained and kennel trained, and his current pain management helps keep him comfortable. Anyone considering a lifetime foster placement should connect with Animal Network to learn more about his medical needs and the care involved.
