Woof, pals! I'm Shine, a wise and lovable 7-8 year old Boxer mix on a mission to find my forever family. Life threw me a curveball when my previous family lost their house, and now I'm here, ready to share my heart with the right folks. I'm a big baby at heart, and nothing makes me happier than snuggling up for some quality time and those coveted tummy rubs. I'm house-trained and a perfect gentleman in my kennel, never causing any trouble.
Walking on a leash? Piece of cake. I'm the perfect walking companion, ready to explore the world at a leisurely pace. Young kiddos make me a tad wary, but older kids around 8 and above who know to be calm around me would be just fine. I'm a certified couch potato, radiating warmth and love to anyone willing to share the sofa with me. I'm the sweetest old fella you'll ever meet, and I'm just waiting for that special family to light up their lives. If you're ready for a big-hearted, easygoing companion, adopt me, Shine, and let's make the golden years even brighter together!
My adoption fee is $175, which covers all of my vetting. If you would like more information on me, please give SVASC a call at (540) 943-5142, email SVASC at ewiles@co.augusta.va.us. I am currently in foster care, so please call ahead and ask about Shine!
