My name is Dobby!

Meet Dobby! You may remember him as a tiny puppy...he is one of mama Perdi's 9 puppers! 

Life happened and he is back with us hoping to find his people. 

Meet Dobby! You may remember him as a tiny puppy. He was one of a litter of nine who's still-pregnant mom was rescued from the euthanasia list in Clovis at the last minute.

He's now about 2 and looking for a long-term foster or foster-to-adopt home. He was returned once because his adopters were moving and again more recently because he wasn't getting along with certain regular guests and would stress when his family left the house.

We think he's a Lab/border collie cross.

Dobby is neutered, house-trained and crate-trained. He has decent manners on a leash with a front-clip harness, although he can still polish his manners in that department. He also knows the command "sit."

Dobby is cheerful and affectionate. He loves woman, children and other dogs. He wants to play and play with other dogs, and then cuddle up with his human for pets and relaxation. He's selective about which men and teenage boys he gets along with. Our best guess is that his issues arose from fear or a herding instinct, and we'll pay for training to help him understand how to interact with human males. He's generally easy-going, food-motivated and eager to see his humans happy, so we think he'll respond well to training. He thinks all cats are for chasing, so we don't recommend that he go to a home with felines.

Dobby likes going on walks, chomping on his chew toys and rough-housing with his canine foster siblings. He politely refrains from chewing on his human's belongings. He does bark when the human leaves, but he seems to eventually move on after expressing his displeasure.

Dobby will make a wonderful, loving companion for someone.
