This little senior fella found himself in a tough situation: dropped off at a high capacity shelter south of Los Angeles. He was gnarly looking too: dreadlocked fur, infected scabby skin, fox-tails embedding his skin and infected toenails. His front teeth are worn down from gnawing hard objects or metal. His teeth were very uncomfortable-- his whole body looked very uncomfortable!

3 baths and 2 shave downs later and we have ourselves a significantly happier dude!
What we know about Roosevelt so far:
- Very chill and quiet.
- He is so sweet and gentle and kind.
- Maybe 11 years old.?
- Possible doxie/spaniel mix.
- 100& love bug.
- Fantastic in the car considering he was most likely a backyard dog.
