My story

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

Introducing Beckham, a handsome and "perfect gentleman" who is ready to find his forever teammates.

Truly an all-around catch, Beckham is a loving, easygoing guy who balances a chill, cuddly nature with a spirit that is always down for an adventure. Whether you are heading out for a hike or settling in for a movie night, Beckham is just happy to be by your side. He is remarkably smart and eager to please, already boasting a repertoire of commands and a desire to keep learning more.

Walking Beckham is a dream, as he handles his leash beautifully and greets the world with a signature, sweet "bum wiggle" whenever he spots a potential new dog friend. He is fully house-trained and making incredible strides with his crate training, motivated by his deep desire to be as close to his humans as possible. He may protest being left alone but is surely and slowly learning that his humans will always come back. Because of his adaptable personality, Beckham would thrive in either an apartment or a house, provided his family ensures he gets the daily exercise and mental stimulation a clever boy like him deserves.

Though he hasn't officially met children or cats yet, his foster family is highly optimistic. His happy-go-lucky attitude suggests he would do well with a family, and his lack of prey drive indicates he would likely be a "swell" roommate for feline friends. If you are looking for a loyal companion who offers boundless love and a gentlemanly charm, Beckham is the teammate you’ve been waiting for. 🖤
