| Ty |
Ty Dozer is a 13-year-old puppy. This loveable black and white
English Setter with a patch of brown above his left eye is the
opposite of Ozzie (also available for adoption). Ty is full of
energy and raring to go. With his age, he does have cataracts
(his eyes are blue when he looks at the light), but his sense of
smell is perfectly fine. He can find your food and shoes
extremely well! He is like a puppy, running around, licking and
tasting everything, and then when he finds something, he
takes off through the house with his prize before begging to
go outside. (He has not attempted to bury anything yet!) He
loves to be around you, and he will find a way to make it into
bed. He prefers to sleep in the bedroom, and if you put him in
his cage and he disagrees with you, he will huff. He is an
extremely good dog, and he loves to attempt to help you eat
your dinner. He will lean into you as his legs are a little wobbly
at times and he will put his head in your lap when you sit
down. He even can look like an English Bulldog at times when

he turns his front legs out, and I call it chicken
winging. Ty has earned the middle name Dozer as he
will plow through things to get to you, and he loves to
come bounding down the hill of my backyard (and I
pray he finds the brakes before he finds my legs). His
original story when he came from the McLean Animal
Shelter fire in Kentucky was that his elderly male
owner died and the elderly wife could no longer care
for him; I think it was more along the lines that she
couldn’t keep up with him as he is energetic, loves to
be outside watching the diesel trucks warm up in the
mornings at the company that I live behind, and he
longingly wishes he could go with the group of men
standing around. One funny thing that he does that I
believe comes from his hunting days is that he will roll
winging. Ty has earned the middle name Dozer as he

believe comes from his hunting days is that he will roll
his head on the ground so that his white streak
turns brown. It’s almost like he is attempting to
stand on his head. To be his age, he is quite
flexible and can even lick his belly through his front
legs. He is a drooler as his jaws hang over his
teeth and he is a bit on the thin side (believe me,
he’s getting extra food too). He is willing to fight
over a water or food bowl; on certain rare
occasions, he and Ozzie have drink from the same
water bowl, but I have stood guard. They
sporadically fight when one thinks the other is
getting more attention or if it’s in regards to food
or water, which is typical in almost any breed of
dog. He was neutered at 13, but has no other

issues as Ty gets along with my other three dogs and
he even sniffs the others as if to say “Hey, who are
you? What did you last get fed?” (see picture of him
sniffing Lucy). If you consider adopting him, please
be prepared for energy. Ty will crash when it’s time to
sleep, but he likes to be up and in the middle of your
activities. He is about 23 inches tall and 22-24 inches
long (neck to beginning of tail). It’s like measuring a
wiggling puppy. I tried to get some good pictures,
but he was more interesting in putting nose prints on
the camera or getting a head rub.
