About Bucky

Deaf


Bucky – Bonded Pair with Gizmo Breed: Cocker Spaniel (deaf) Age: 14 years Location: Middlesex, NC Must Be Adopted With: Gizmo (11–12-year-old Chihuahua) Good With: Cats, dogs Adoption Fee: $600 (for the bonded pair)

Meet Bucky! Bucky is a gentle 14-year-old Cocker Spaniel who depends on and adores his best friend Gizmo, an 11–12-year-old Chihuahua. These two seniors lost their 90-year-old mom when she passed away, and heartbreakingly, none of her five adult children were willing to take them. The family even considered taking them to a shelter to be euthanized. We stepped in just in time to keep them safe.

Bucky is completely toothless, but that doesn't stop him from loving mealtime! He is also deaf, but he navigates life with calm confidence and looks to Gizmo for comfort and companionship. Both boys are sweet, quiet, low-maintenance, and wonderful with other dogs and cats.

Because of their deep bond, they must stay together. They've already lost so much—being separated would be devastating.

We are looking for a local foster or adopter in or near Middlesex, NC, who can offer these two a peaceful, loving home to spend their golden years side by side.

If you can give Bucky and Gizmo the soft landing they deserve, please submit an application today.
