Older dog promises to be perfect companion

GRAYSLAKE – Parker says, “Big smile, pointy ears, smart … and a little plump. I listen well, I enjoy walks and I’m a pro at catching treats up in the air, even small ones.

“I enjoy playing with plush toys, carrying them around and hanging out with my friends here. I never stay too far away from them, listening to how their day is going and helping them feel better if they are down.

“Are you lonely by yourself at home? I may be your perfect companion.

“Don’t forget that my adoption fee this month is 50% off for Elder Love month. This also applies to cats 10 years and older and dogs 8 years and older. Regular adoption procedures apply and the $12 rabies tag/registration fee will be charged for all Lake County residents.”

Parker is about 11 years old, neutered, up to date on shots (including rabies), tested negative for heartworm and on preventive and microchipped.
