Meet Cappy, a sweet and soulful 7-year-old Shar-Pei mix who is soaking up the comforts of foster life while waiting for his perfect forever home. At just over 53 lbs, this distinguished gentleman brings quiet charm and a loving spirit to every moment.

Cappy was diagnosed with arthritis—likely the result of an old injury—so his favorite things in life are gentle walks, soft places to rest, and calm, consistent love. He might move a little slower these days, but don’t let that fool you—he still enjoys sniffing around the yard, cuddling close, and being near his people.

When it comes to other dogs, Cappy is generally calm and respectful, though he may be a bit forward with smaller pups. He would thrive as an only dog or with a well-matched companion who understands his easygoing vibe. Either way, he’s happiest in a peaceful home where he can take life at his own pace.

If you’re searching for a loyal friend with a big heart and wise eyes, Cappy is ready to be your steady sidekick. He’s the kind of dog who doesn’t need much—just a warm spot, gentle care, and someone to love him as much as he’ll love you.
