My story

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

Ivan is a gorgeous, ~3 year old, 65lb boy. We think he's a Lab / Carolina Dog mix based on his features. Regardless of breed, he’s a loyal guy looking for his forever human(s).



Housetrained: Yes!
Cratetrained: Yes!
Neutered: Yes!
Up to date on shots: Yes!
Key fact: Ivan LOVES people. He adores head scratches and sitting near you.
Favorite indoor activity: bones, bones, bones!!
Favorite outdoor activity: zooming in the yard or helping my foster mom with gardening
Dogs: Ivan would like to be your one and only
Cats: Ivan thinks they are food, so no cats!

When you're home, he loves to be with you and would happily keep you company while you do cook, watch tv, read, garden, or soak up the sun. He is also content chewing a bone or enjoying a kong. He has also stepped up his napping game. If you have a sectional, Ivan loves to snooze on the chaise while you snooze on the main part of the couch.



Given his size and his personality, we are requiring a single family home with a fenced in yard or a home that would provide him with space to run!



Older kids would be fine for Ivan. He can get excited and sometimes jump - please be willing to continue his training with this - so we feel best if his home doesn't have younger children or those unstable on their feet.  He is working on knowing that sitting calm = happy humans and/or treatos.



Ivan is a boy with a heart of gold who will love you beyond measure. He may win you over when he leans into you, somehow both giving and requesting love. He deserves someone who will be patient with him. And give lots of pets and head kisses, which are his favorite. If you think this could be you, please apply for him today.
