Fanny didn’t arrive alone. She came in with Skip, her constant companion, her comfort, and her shadow through every stage of life. When their owner could no longer care for them due to health challenges, the two were surrendered together—but if there’s one thing that’s never changed, it’s this: they are inseparable and must be adopted or fostered as a bonded pair.
Fanny may be a senior girl born in March 2013, and she may be living with mild degenerative valve disease, but what stands out far more than her medical notes is her heart. She is deeply affectionate, calm, and happiest when she’s close to Skip, as if his presence makes the world feel steady again.
Why Fanny (and Skip) Are So Special
🐾 Date of birth: March 2013
🐶 Senior bonded pair (must stay together)
💛 Gentle, affectionate temperaments
🏡 Calm home required
🐕 Good with most other dogs
👨👩👧👦 Good with men, women, and children
Fanny is the softer, quieter presence in the pair—content, loving, and deeply connected to her companion. Skip and Fanny together form a peaceful little unit that simply wants comfort, consistency, and kindness.
Fanny’s Medical Notes
🩺 Mild degenerative valve disease
🏥 May qualify for medical foster arrangement
💙 Needs a home willing to provide gentle, ongoing care
Her condition doesn’t define her day-to-day personality—she still seeks affection, enjoys companionship, and thrives in a calm, stable environment.
The Home They Need Most
✔️ A quiet, low-stress household
✔️ A patient adopter or foster who understands senior care
✔️ Space for a bonded pair who rely on each other emotionally
✔️ A warm place where they can rest, feel safe, and stay together
Fanny doesn’t ask for much—just comfort, routine, and the reassurance that Skip is always near.
