My story

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

For Yogi's photoshoot session, the volunteers were laughing at him stating he was just like a bull in a China shop. Yogi doesn't know how big or strong he is. He would do best either in a fenced in yard or wearing a harness during a walk. He immediately became enamored with a little plush toy so stock up on the toys for this guy!

He really enjoyed rolling around in the grass, which made for some cute photos. He also enjoyed treats and already knows "sit" and "down". All in all, he's just a big, dopey boy that just wanted to play!

During a recent playgroup session, volunteers stated he was big, strong, and a little too playful at times for his playmates liking which required volunteer intervention to slow him down. Yogi loved the thrill of the chase, but he plays on the rougher side. As big as he is, and with his overzealous energy, he would be intimidating to most other dogs. He would likely do best with a sturdy, confident female who likes rough and tumble play.

If you're interested in learning more about Yogi, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line " Yogi 247064".

Yogi is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
