http://www.oldies.org.uk is a great organization in the UK that helps older dogs find homes.

The above picture is one of there urgent cases.

Here is his story (go to there website if you can help):

Max came into Oldies Club care as an emergency case recently after his elderly owner had a fall and broke his hip and wasn’t found for several days. Very sadly we’ve since heard that his owner died. Max’s owner was agoraphobic and so Max is used to his constant company. At the moment having had such a big change in his life, he can become stressed if he is left alone even for short periods. He prefers to sleep in the same room as his person too. All this is very understandable given that he has lost his beloved owner and is no doubt worried he will be left alone again, but it does mean that he needs a very special and understanding fosterer or foster family.

Max is 11 years old and apart from his worries about being left, is a laid-back, placid boy who loves everyone. He adores people of all ages and he’s great with children. We think he’s also rather handsome too! He doesn’t need much walking: in fact he’d probably be quite happy just with access to a garden to potter about in.

He is currently in a foster home in Bracknell, Berks and his foster mum adores him, but we now need to find Max a permanent home or another foster place, as he gets quite upset about being left. He needs someone who can be around to keep him company most of the time, or perhaps a family environment where there is always someone in the house.

Is there anyone around most of the time who would like to open up their home to this wonderful old gent?
