Story
It's 5/22 and Simba is now stuck in boarding and completely forgotten #SIMBA is in need of shares and help. As much as his foster would love to adopt him, it's a little challenging for him having never owned a dog before. Simba needs an alpha human with experience. He's a good boy but needs to know he is not the boss. He completed 8 weeks of training and knows basic commands. He walks well on a leash and is dog friendly but will require meet and greets. He's 3 years old, 71 lbs, neutered and UTD with vaccines. Please contact Fairytail Endings Rescue or myself if interested in fostering and/or adopting this sweet boy.
