My story

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

Dillon is my 4-year-old, 45 lb rescue pup who I adopted from the Humane Society when he was 6 months old. He has been my best friend and greatest comfort, and this is the hardest decision I have ever had to make. Due to job relocation, financial instability, and his behavioral needs, I cannot give him the stable home he deserves. Dillon is crate and potty trained, loves tug of war, car rides, and adores being outside, so a fenced yard is a must. He's loving, loyal, and the best snuggler once he trusts you. Dillon struggles with fear-based reactivity toward strangers, so he needs a patient, experienced owner who is home often and can give him time to warm up. He does great with other dogs after slow introductions and would love a canine friend to play with. He's very food motivated, goofy, protective, and full of heart. He truly is the perfect dog in the right, calm home with someone who understands him and will love him unconditionally.
