My story

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

Splotch (ACCT-A-163043) is a 1-year-old male who came in as an owner surrender on 5/4, due to having too many dogs and not being able to provide for them all. Splotch came in with Takeela (ACCT-A-163041).

The owners described Splotch as "high energy, very active.

In-shelter, they've shown signs of heightened fear, anxiety, and stress and would benefit from more dedicated care in a calmer environment. Both have begun settling in to their new surroundings, but Splotch appears to be acclimating more easily; he is foster eligible. The two are not bonded and can be placed separately.

Behavioral Notes:

During Splotch's behavioral assessment on 5/5, staff noted: "Very fearful and nervous at first but opens up with time. Very affectionate once he trusts you. Adult only home due to fear, 12+

Medical Notes:

During Splotch's intake exam on 5/4, staff found him to be in good general health, but fearful.
