Shorty is a happy, affectionate pup who loves making the most of his days! He enjoys going on walks, playing with toys, and especially playing fetch with his stuffed animals. He’s been enjoying two walks a day along with outdoor playtime, so he’d love a home that can give him opportunities to stay active and have fun. Shorty has done well around other dogs and has been friendly with men, women, and children. We’re still learning how he does with cats. He has a great balance of playful energy and cuddle time. During the day, he enjoys walks and playtime, but in the evenings, he loves curling up on the couch with his person while watching TV. He sleeps peacefully on his own bed through the night, too! Around the house, Shorty is generally a pretty quiet guy. He’ll let you know if he hears something outside or someone approaches the house, but otherwise, he’s happy to hang out. He’s comfortable being picked up, and he walks pretty well on a leash. He does pull a little, and we’re working on his leash manners. He has also shown some reactivity with runners during walks, so that’s something his new family can continue working on with him. Shorty is an easy eater who happily finishes his meals without any coaxing, making mealtimes and giving him any medication or supplements a breeze. He doesn’t seem to know many commands yet, but he’s very treat-motivated and is already learning to sit. He should be a fun dog to continue training! Shorty appears to be potty trained, although he has been marking indoors in his foster home, where another dog is present (he’s currently wearing a belly band). If you’re looking for a cheerful, loving companion who enjoys walks and playtime just as much as cozy evenings on the couch, Shorty could be your perfect match. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on his vaccinations. His adoption fee is $300. All Second Chance Dog Rescue dogs are spayed/neutered, are up to date on vaccines and have microchips prior to adoption. Adoption fees vary depending on age of dog. Fees help Second Chance Dog Rescue cover spay/neuter costs, vaccinations, medical treatments, food and supplies. Please go to .secondchancedogrescue and complete an application today! All dogs live in private foster homes until they are adopted.
