My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

One look into Bush's big soulful eyes and you'll fall in love. And why wouldn't you? Bush is the perfect catch! Originally only fostering him through recovery after knee surgery, Bush stole the hearts of his entire foster household and his two canine foster sisters were just too smitten with him to part. Now fully recovered, Bush is ready to find a loving forever home to call his own. Inquire about a meeting today, he may just be your perfect match!

A staff & volunteer favorite, Bush wins the affection of everyone he meets. At just under 4 years old, Bush is the perfect level of energy. He's down to to play all day or to just enjoy your company on the couch. He's a perfect house guest and while he can be trusted to free roam home alone, he's also happy to enjoy a kong in his crate too. He loves other dogs, small and big alike, and brings out the best in his canine companions. He's also makes for the perfect little-spoon when cuddling.

Have you fallen for him yet? Arrange a meeting and let sparks fly!
