About Popeye

Do you love a dog that sploots? Do you believe senior dogs deserve the good couch, the soft bed, the short walk, and the absolute world? Meet Popeye, an 8-year-old bulldog and certified drunken sailor man. Popeye has degenerative myelopathy, which means he is not in pain, but his back legs are not always totally sure what the plan is. He waddles. He sploots. He occasionally looks like he has been overserved at a dockside bar. And somehow, it only makes him more lovable. Because of his wobbly little back end, Popeye would do best in a home without a lot of stairs. Stairs are hard for him, and unfortunately, Popeye has not received the memo that stairs should be approached with caution. He prefers to go absolutely soaring down them like a bowling ball with feelings, so fewer stairs would be ideal.

Ideal Home

A home without a lot of stairs would be ideal for Popeye, as navigating them can be difficult for him.

Ongoing Health

Popeye has degenerative myelopathy, which affects his back legs. He is not in pain.

Training & Support

Popeye is described as a classic bulldog, prone to loud panting and gas. He is a loyal and sweet companion who loves short walks, pets, snacks, and naps. He is looking for someone who will appreciate his unique personality.
