💛 Gizmo — A Tiny Senior With a Big Heart

Hi, I’m Gizmo! I’m a 12‑year‑old, 8‑pound Pomeranian who was rescued by SBRET after losing my home. I’m a gentle little senior looking for a quiet, loving place to spend my golden years.

I have tracheal collapse, but right now I only have a small cough each day and don’t need medication. I take thyroid meds and will need occasional bloodwork. I had a dental and now have just two teeth, so my tongue hangs out — everyone says it’s adorable. I eat softened kibble with no trouble.

I sleep in my x‑pen, enjoy napping, and like being near my humans. My hearing and vision aren’t perfect, so I need someone who can keep me safe, especially around furniture and stairs. I’m not a cuddler, but I love belly rubs and being close by.

I’m doing great with housetraining and walk nicely on a leash, though I zig‑zag a bit. I like calm, older dogs. Car rides make me nervous, so a low‑travel home is best.

If you are in the Knoxville area, SBRET will cover the cost of Gizmo’s medication and medical care and you provide the home and the love!  I’m neutered, microchipped, had a dental, and I’m up to date on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention.

If you’re ready to love a sweet senior who just wants comfort, kindness, and a soft bed, I’m your boy.
