Beefy boy! Our 68 pound black and white terrier mix came to us recently with 2 other dogs. We got a call from a neighbor who stated there was a dog on a roof. Our officers arrived with the local PD, where they were able to safely get the dog off. The two other dogs (one being Beefy) were inside with a cloudy water bowl and chewed up plastic bits. Thankfully, Beefy did not ingest any foreign bodies and is as happy as ever! Although, he would be much happier in a home of his own. Beefy is a playful, 2-year-old boy who loves toys, especially playing tug-of-war and just being around people! Beefy is suggested to go to a home a solo-dog. He was in a foster home and was absolutely pleasant, however once he became comfy, he exhibited signs of guarding; due to this we recommend him to be in a home with teens (trainer discretion). Beefy is a handsome fella, that will provide hours of fun!
