y. He can be a little anxious when meeting new people and going to new places, but once he feels safe, he never wants to leave your side. He is an affectionate boy who would thrive with a family that can help him gain confidence and shower him with love. He has an adorable little bobtail and weighs about 16lbs. Simba was surrendered to use with two other dogs after his family was no longer able to care for the dogs. He had been with the family since he was a puppy, so he understandably has been confused and anxious. As we have gotten to know him better, he has been showing us how great a companion he is and how much of a good boy he is. The other two dogs from his home have been adopted, so now it's his turn! Simba is a stoic guy who is past the puppy crazy phase and is happy to spend his days lounging around the house or going on relaxing walks around the neighborhood. He has slowly learned the joy of squeaky toys and loves to play fetch and play with the other animals in his foster home. Simba hasn't had any formal training but is food-motivated and willing to learn. Simba seems like he would do best with a family that wouldn't have to leave him alone for long periods or often. He could make a wonderful companion for an older person or couple wanting a mellow walking buddy. Simba has done well living with both large and small dogs and needs a home with other dogs. He looks to his dog buddies for comfort and has shown to be more anxious as an only dog. He has done well living with dog-savvy cats with a slow introduction and proper supervision. He actually loves to play with cats who will play with him. Simba needs an adult-only home. Simba has been doing great with his housetraining, but does tend to mark when in a new place. His new family will need to be patient with him while he is adjusting to a new place and routine. Simba has done well being crated when alone and overnight. He also would love to sleep in bed with you if you'd let him. Simba is such a darling boy and deserves a fresh start with a family just as great as him.
