Romeo
- Rat Terrier
- 19 years old
Romeo was loved for many years but unfortunately his family lost their home and had to relocate to a place that doesn’t allow dogs. He is supposedly 19, but acts like a 13 year old. Right now Romeo is in pretty good health and is only taking one medication for his liver maintenance. We are looking to help cover his medication and basic care!

Romeo’s Favorite Spot
Romeo loves his beds so much that when he was woken up to go outside this morning, he just opened his eyes, looked around, and put his head right back down. His message was clear: "Nope! Too comfortable!"
Best Welcome Committee Ever!
Nothing beats the pure joy of dogs welcoming their favorite person home! Tail wags, happy barks, and full-body wiggles—this is the best kind of greeting.
Seeing Double 👀🐾
Henry and Romeo—two distinguished gentlemen with one classic look! Same soulful eyes, same perfect grays… but twice the charm. Are we sure they’re not long-lost brothers?
Not So Sure...
This is Romeo’s face when he gets picked up — a little unsure, but not unhappy! He doesn't get scooped up often since they’re still figuring out if he’s a fan or just politely tolerating it.
Vet Visit Results
Romeo went to the vet for his really bad cough. In typical dog fashion, he didn’t make a peep once! They took an X-ray to be safe, and it turns out he just has an old man cough. His trachea is a little thinner, but not too bad for an old man. We’re glad to know it’s nothing serious! He now has some meds to help keep him comfortable!
Time for a Check-Up at the Vet
Mr. Romeo has a bad cough, this was the look he gave when he learned that his vet appointment is tomorrow. Finger's crossed it's nothing serious, we'll keep you updated!
Kitchen Patrol in Full Effect
Every time someone heads to the kitchen, they have to navigate this crew of hungry eyes. These pups are always on the lookout for any dropped snacks, and let’s be real, a morsel or two might just "accidentally" fall their way!
Snow Day!
Snow way Romeo's staying inside today! ❄️🐶
Fireside Squad Goals
When the snow’s falling outside, this crew knows where to be: all cozy, all warm, all together by the fire.
Pet Sitter Fun!
When you find a pet sitter who loves your dogs as much as you do, you've hit the jackpot! 🐾💖 Little Oldies is lucky to have this amazing pet sitter and friend who treats every dog like family!
Watchful Eyes
Every time someone heads out the front door, this is what they see—dogs wondering where the heck they're going!
Look At Romeo Go!
Some pups, like Romeo, take a little longer to trust and don’t show their true personalities right away. While some are eager to share their love, others remain on guard. But with patience, love, and understanding, these pups learn that they can trust again. When that bond forms, it’s an incredible feeling. Romeo is finally starting to trust his Little Oldies Caretakers, and we’re so excited to see his unique personality shine! Look at how happy he is—he’s truly found his place. We love this sweet old man, and it’s clear he loves it there too!
Romeo's Vibe
If Romeo were a person, he'd be a grumpy little old man with a newspaper, telling the chickens to settle down and enjoying the breeze in his hair. But deep down, he’s just a cuddle bug full of mush.
Romeo has claimed his bed!
Romeo has claimed this bed as his, it does look like it fits in perfectly! If any of the other pups sleep in it, he just stands there and looks sad!
Helping with groceries
This is Romeo making sure I unpacked all the groceries!
Loving life as usual!
Romeo is doing great and loving life as usual! Still enjoying his favorite activities and keeping everyone smiling.
Romeo's settling in!
Romeo is the newest addition to Little Oldies and is still working on settling in. He loves butt rubs and does a little dance when you scratch his bum with both hands. He is really starting to trust us with coming over and getting head scratches. He loves to be outside and is curious about the chickens. He has very long legs and a cute little body. It’s almost like he is walking on stilts! He is the sweetest boy ever and Little Oldies is happy he found his way to them!
