Meet Bettie — The Certified House Hippo Looking for Her Golden Years!Bettie came to Twenty Paws Rescue from the NYACC—a place no senior dog ever belongs.
In her foster home, this gentle, 12 years young, 55 lb land seal settled right in and hasn’t met a cozy couch she doesn’t love!Bettie is the ultimate human lover. She adores people of all ages and sizes. She’s best friends with her 3 year old human foster brother.
At 12 years young, Bettie is an exceptionally easy house guest and brings endless warmth, tranquility, and tail wags.During a vet visit, we discovered Bettie has a small spot of skin cancer on her leg. This condition is stable and not terminal. Bettie is doing fantastic! Her foster family keeps a close eye on her Bettie lives with another dog and gets along with her fur foster sibling following slow, steady introductions. Much like our girl, slow and steady wins the race.
Bettie is ready to find a soft place to land and a family ready to spoil her as she deserves.
