Story
Adoption Fee: $475
When available, all animals are fixed in accordance with Colorado law, up to date on vaccines (may need boosters), and microchipped!
What we know: 5-year-old neutered male transferred from Española Humane Society, NM. Intake type was seized/custody/owner surrender. Up to date on all vaccines prior to transport.
From the foster: Sweet mature pup ready to join your family.
Come meet Snoops, a 5+ year young gorgeous pup that will absolutely steel your heart with his happy nature and beautiful brown eyes.
He is a shadow, has FOMO and is pure Velcro, wanting to know what you are up to at all times. He will happily escort you from room to room to ensure your safety and happily accept snacks as a reward for his hard work.
He is just as happy laying next to you on the couch or taking a snooze under your desk as you work. He is not a barker, so you can take that conference call with no interruption.
Temperament: Snoop is great with other dogs. If you have a very confident cat he may do well, but introductions should be very slow.
Kiddo’s: I would suggest older kiddo’s for Snoop. Snoop has strong opinions about being lifted, nudged or boosted. It will take time to build trust. Instead of trying to “force” him, Snoops can easily be coaxed with cheese, a high value treat or his leash.
Potty: Hallelujah, this boy is fully potty trained! He will go potty in our dog yard, but prefers a walk in the morning and after dinner. Don’t worry, his walks don’t need to be long, he gets his business out of the way pretty quickly. He is a bit of a puller on the leash, but it’s to get to his favorite potty spot, once that is done, he settles down a bit and focuses on what there is to sniff. As far as a yard, it’s preferred, he loves to lay in the shade and watch planes, birds, bugs and wildlife while lazily sniffing the air.
To crate or not to crate: He is comfortable in a crate. We crate him when we sleep at night, although he would probably prefer to be on the bed with his people if they are okay with that. We also crate him when we leave the house. I really feel like he wouldn’t need a crate, but we (fosters) have such little time with them to see if they have anxiety when we leave, we are just being cautious. When crated he has a few little whimpers, but then settles down quickly. Cheese gets him in his crate with no complaints and when we return he is relaxed and usually sleeping.
Snoops is a really loving soul with a wiggle butt that is constantly in motion. Come meet him this Saturday, he can’t wait to start his forever life with you.
