**Meet Beckett – A Big, Handsome Boy!**Beckett came into the shelter as a stray, seemingly dumped on a gravel road. Thankfully, some good Samaritans rescued him and brought him to safety. When Beckett first arrived, he was terrified and wouldn’t let anyone come near his kennel or open the door. However, after some time to decompress, his true character began to shine through!This lovable giant has a playful side and absolutely loves to play fetch. Beckett is food-motivated and eager to learn new tricks, proving to be such a good boy! While he may get a bit stressed in new situations, he just needs an owner who is patient and willing to train him. With a little guidance and understanding, Beckett will thrive in a loving home.If you’re ready to provide a nurturing environment for this handsome boy, Beckett is waiting for you!🐶 Adopting a Dog from BAHS 🐶All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and heartworm tested before going home.Please keep in mind that we cannot guarantee how a dog will do with children, other dogs, or cats.
