Squirrel

This is Squirrel. We named him this because his genetics are a Carolina dog or feist type dog who have been bred for hunting, but squirrel has no want for that. He enjoys hugs, running outside, and getting to play with other dogs. He has been occupying a shelter employees office since he got here and we have found he is great in a crate. He is crate trained and will not poop or pee in his crate unless he has not been taken out. He is very very quiet in his crate and hardly barks. We have taken him out with another dog his size and he was very nice with the dog and they likes to play together. He was owner surrendered by a older man who could just not take care of him anymore but wanted what was best for him. We think he would make anyone a wonderful companion dog because he loves to give you hugs on your leg and loves attention at the same time he doesn't mind laying around and doing his own thing.

Long walks or fenced in back yard is always the best environment for dogs, but exercise is the main goal. We can test our dogs with other dogs at the shelter, but not every dog may get along with your dog this is why if you do have a pet at home we strongly suggest meet and greets before adopting. When adopting an animal at the shelter please know the responsibility of an animal. Most of the animals at the shelter have come in as a stray which mean they may not know how to sit or stay. They also might not have manners such as not to jump. Adopting takes patience. Please research the dog breed you are interested in and remember it takes time. Refer to the sheltering 3/3/3 rule of adopting for help.
