Story
Are you looking for a companion? Meet Fenrir (Fen/Fenny)! Young, fun, and affectionate, Fen loves long walks, sunbathing, tummy rubs, fetch, tug-of-war, and snuggling on the bed (he may snore and steal blankets). He knows basic commands, loves water (not baths), and is fully house- and crate-trained. Fen is nervous with new things and needs a pet-free home—no dogs or cats—where he can be the only animal. He’s healthy, fully vaccinated, DNA-tested, and cared for by Banfield in North Attleboro. Fen is deeply loved and needs a calm home that understands and embraces his quirks.

Essex is energetic and loving. He needs open space to run. He doesn't care for babies and toddlers (poking and pulling) he's good with teens and children. He doesn't like strangers but after meeting them he opens up. He'll cuddle on the couch getting as close to you as he can until he's on you, or he'll run laps around the house for hours. He'll talk to you when he had something to say, and tell you when he needs to go out.
