My name is Johnny!

~adoption fee applies~

My name is Johnny Boy – that was always what my family called from the day I was purchased at a pet store and brought home

I lived with my family for 2 years through so many ups and downs but finally this last down left them in a position that they had to give me up; everyone was really sad and my mom tried on her own to find me a really good home but that was easier said than done! Time was running out and thankfully she loved me so very much that even though it was hard to say goodbye she released me to CAA Rescue. So now I am in foster care with them and although I am really unsure about all the changes happening in my life and am a little nervous about it all everyone has been super kind to me.

I was born on November 28th 2012 listed as a beagle/pointer mix … I am not so sure about the beagle part but really who cares as I am just a tall, lanky and very handsome young man! CAA Rescue volunteers all agree after meeting me that there is Dalmatian in there - I am just so tall and spotty!


I possess no food aggression with people or dogs as I do live with other dogs in foster care
I am generally a happy and goofy guy but like I said these changes in my life have made me a little unsure about things so if you choose to meet me and then adopt me please be prepared that it will take some time for me to adjust to life in your home and after a few weeks my goofy nature will return
When I was with my family for the first 2 years of my life I really did not experience much of life outside my home and back yard so all these new adventures can be a little overwhelming for me but foster daddy has been very patient and kind with me and I really have been responding very well to him

With all the moving in my life I have developed slight separation anxiety and while I have not destroyed anything I will cry when you leave so apartment life probably is not the best for me for the simple reason that it will take me longer to adjust and get used to life with you and I have already been down the apartment life road with a failed adoption because I cried when left alone. Everyone agreed that I would not do this every day for the rest of my left but probably would for the next few couple of weeks and neighbor who worked nights did not like that so she complained and I got kicked out. My foster daddy does leave me alone for short trips but because he is in a house he really has no way of knowing if I howl when gone plus I got my foster bro to keep me company!

I took a stab at apartment life and unfortunately it was just not for me. With all the changes going on in my life I was sad when my new Mom left me alone in my crate after just losing my first Mom so I cried and cried and then cried some more. My new Mom got some complaints from a neighbour and unfortunately the landlord was not willing to give my new Mom more time to get used to my new living arrangements and situation. She was really sad to have to give me back but c’est la vie! I can bounce back but my new NEW parents will have to not have any attached neighbours and be REALLY patient with me because I ain’t moving again! My foster daddy does leave me alone for short trips but because he is in a house he doesn’t know if I am singing the song of my “people” while he is gone plus now I have a foster bro to keep me company.

I have never been tested with cats but something tells me that the two possible breed mixes in me would LOVE to chase them!

I have never been with young children but my tall and lanky 50lbs body coupled with my normal goofy natures makes me think that because I have no experience around young children I could easily knock one over causing unnecessary harm and I would not want to do that – it would make me very sad to know I unknowingly hurt someone because that is just not in my nature!

Until I have bonded with my new family I should not be off leash unattended and that includes back yards; the beagle and pointer in me are natural investigators so putting my nose to the ground and getting lost in smells is just my job! I do it very well – I would love someone to take me exploring like perhaps hiking through the woods on a trail where I can be ME. A very secure fenced in backyard for me to romp around in will be important once I can be unattended in the back yard – no cedar hedges that I can find a hole in because if I smell something no pesky hedge will stop me from following that scent.

I was never ever really leash trained but I can tell you I do very much enjoy my walks and I am a fast learner I just need someone who can be gentle and patient with me to show me how to behave as a proper canine citizen should behave on the leash!

I am house broken and was crated all my life when left alone – foster daddy refuses to do that so let’s see now if I can be trusted… only time will tell
I am friendly and loving

I deserve a family and a best friend to love me back

My next move MUST be my last – commitment is not a river in some place I have never been but it is something that I have never known in my life … and every life deserves at least one person to love them for always, no?
Someone who truly does want me in their lives forever; not just while it is convenient and easy.
Through thick and thin!
Family Furever!
