Story
To learn more about Mortimer, please get in touch with dogs@lostdogrescue.org Mortimer will be at one of our adoption events this weekend! Visit our event page (https://www.lostdogrescue.org/events/) to see which one—event listings are usually updated on Fridays with attending dogs. Certified good boy alert — meet Mortimer! This young Anatolian Shepherd mix is a lovable, goofy “lap dog” in a big, fluffy body. Mortimer is the total package: affectionate, friendly, and full of charm. Mortimer has done great with other dogs, both in playgroup and in a home setting. He’s a wonderful mix of playful and respectful—happy to engage, but also able to read the room and give space when needed. He’d likely enjoy a canine companion, especially one who can help boost his confidence as he settles into new environments. With people, Mortimer is an absolute love. He leans in for pets, soaks up attention, and will happily climb into your lap (or at least try to!) for extra snuggles. He already knows “sit,” takes treats gently, and has a great foundation of house manners. He also seems to be well on his way with potty training—he’s been quick to do his business outside and will even let you know when he needs to go (he has adorably tried to lead his person to the door!). Mortimer can be a little nervous at first, especially in new situations, but he warms up quickly and truly blossoms once he feels comfortable—especially with a dog friend to show him the ropes. Underneath that initial shyness is a happy, affectionate, and playful pup who just wants to love and be loved. If you’re looking for a big-hearted, dog-friendly lap dog and cuddle bug with a goofy streak, Mortimer might just be your perfect match!
