as left at PAWS along with his siblings, Squidward is already showing what a tender, loving companion he’s meant to be.
Unlike his more rambunctious littermates, Squidward prefers quiet moments and cozy cuddles. He’s a lap dog in the making, happiest when snuggled close and soaking up affection. He was recently diagnosed with a heart murmur, and our vet team is still determining next steps for making sure that he is as comfortable as possible. And while we’re still learning more about his medical plan, we are looking for an adopter that is comfortable with managing his care, and taking on his current and future needs.
Squidward will thrive in a quieter home with a friendly resident dog to continue showing him the ropes, and help him build confidence. So if you have space in your heart for an amazing little guy who will just want to be near you (and your pup), Squidward is ready to return all of the love that you have to give tenfold!
