Gorgeous senior land seal hippo mix available for adoption! Meet Raven, a sweet 13-year-old 65lb senior citizen queen. Full of love, light, wisdom, and smiles, this *slightly* voluptuous girl is redefining revenge body. Since entering our care, Raven shed an impressive 15 lbs. She owes this success to a great diet, walks, loving foster mommas, and her beach bod goals! Seriously, thanks to a lot of slow-paced walks and a healthy diet, she’s trimming down. This worked wonders on her arthritis and health. Before, it was too hard for her to go down the block. Now, she’s ready for your stroll down the park to strut her stuff!
Equipped with a sense of humor, resilience, a joyful spirit, and a personality fit to be homecoming queen, Raven loves all humans. She gets along with other dogs as well! While she currently lives with cats and her athletic prowess is analogous to a clumsy hippo, her ideal home would be cat-free. If you have a vacant spot on your couch and want a land seal, look no further. Raven is looking for the perfect retirement home to fill with cuddles, tail wags, and kisses. Raven has only one request – that her forever home have access to a yard and minimal stairs.
Raven came into our care after her former family (who LOVED her very much) were being evicted Sadly, between the time constraints and their situation, they chose to surrender Raven to the shelter or us. Thankfully, we were able to find a foster home for Raven and she did not enter the city shelter system!
Once in our care, Raven started to receive much-needed medical care and screening. We knew something was up. After some testing, Raven was diagnosed with Cushings Disease. Luckily, this is extremely easy to manage, and she is THRIVING on her once-a-day medication.
Raven is funny, loving, and anyone would be lucky to call her theirs. She’s looking for a couch to spend her golden years!
