Long story short, after 15 years knowing Casper I couldn't let him just continue to fail. We took him and he's doing great. Probably the best mannered dog I've came in contact with. He rarely barks ( I've heard him bark probably 10 times in 15'years) don't pull on leash, let's you know when he need to go out, and Great around other dogs. Casper sleeps beside me where ever I setting.

That's a heartwarming story. It's very compassionate of you to take Casper at 15 years of age.
And he is doing his part with gratitude for sanctuary in his final years.
Nice story Topspinmo.
