My story

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

Meet Dr. House, the ultimate low-maintenance companion who has mastered the art of relaxation! This charming gentleman is a dream in the home; he is fully house-trained and a champion sleeper who will happily let you enjoy your morning Zzz’s without a peep. While he enjoys his daily walks and the occasional "zoomie" session with a favorite toy, his true passion is being a professional snuggler. Dr. House is incredibly affectionate and lives for scratches, belly rubs, and kisses. He is a polite roommate who doesn't chew on furniture or get into mischief, though he does have a sophisticated palate—he’ll sit patiently by your side while you eat, hoping his "puppy dog eyes" might earn him a taste of whatever smells so good!

​Dr. House is as resilient as he is sweet. He’s a "chill" participant during bath time (especially if whipped cream is involved!) and is easy to handle, even when it comes to touching his paws. He has some minor, non-contagious skin patches on his neck from his past life, but they don't slow him down one bit. On the leash, he starts his walks with happy enthusiasm and quickly settles into a perfect, calm stride right by your side. While he may be a little delightfully "clunky" and not the most agile athlete, he navigates stairs like a pro and would likely love a doggy sibling to keep him company. If you’re looking for a steady, loving, and soulful friend to brighten your home, the Doctor is ready to see you!
