Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Skeeter in Lincolnton, NC
Skeeter is a fun-loving, happy 3.5-month-old pup, and pro snuggler! We don't know much about his past, but suspect it wasn't great, as his previous owner dumped him at a rural Georgia shelter. That's when the nice people at ASF snatched him up and promised him he'd never be alone again!
Skeeter has made lots of new friends in his foster home and loves to play with other dogs and go on adventures. He loves toys, chew bones and especially training treats. He's a very smart little fella and is picking up on clicker training very quickly. He's learned sit, down and crate and is very food motivated. After is good play session, Skeeter is happy to settle down and take a nice long puppy nap or chew on a bone.
Skeeter is doing very well with his house training when given frequent potty breaks. He is crate trained and sleeps all night in his crate like a good boy.
Skeeter's perfect home would have a fenced yard, no apartments, or electric fences. He'd love to have a friendly canine companion to romp and play with and burn off some of that puppy energy. Skeeter would love a family that was home more often than not as it's hard on a young pup to be crated for long hours. He would thrive with a family that would continue his positive reinforcement training and take him on adventures.
Skeeter is up to date on age-appropriate vaccines and will be microchipped.
If you're looking to add a happy-go-lucky snuggle buddy to your family, Skeeter may be your guy! Skeeter is fostered in Lincolnton, NC
