Tom here! You know me! I`m the `tall, dark and handsome` young man in the Lufkin Room at Lakeland Animal Shelter. Well, maybe I`m not exactly tall but I sure am dark and handsome. In fact, I have the most gorgeous black ears and muzzle and two (count them...two!) beauty marks. I also have a really cool black tip on my tail and the cutest little ring around it too. But, enough about my good looks. I should tell you about my `real` self. You see, I`m kind of shy and a little afraid of people so I`m a bit hard to get to know but, boy oh boy, when you do, you`ll see what an AWESOME boy I really am. I love to head to one of the shelter`s meeting rooms and play with whatever toys I can find. I especially love soft `stuffies` and shaking the daylights out of them. I also love to run like the wind in the play yard! It`s been a bit tricky lately with all the snow but you know how the saying goes, `where there`s a will, there`s a way`! However, as much as I like doing these things at the shelter, I would be SO MUCH HAPPIER doing them in a caring and loving home with my new family. So, Santa, if you could find me the home of my `doggie` dreams, I would be so VERY GRATEFUL, and, oh yes, so VERY VERY HAPPY! Tom has been calling the shelter home since August 2025 •11 months old •Negative for Heart worm •Microchip •Neutered •Would be best with no cats •Likes dogs but can be bossy
