Falcor is a delightful 1.5-year-old dog eagerly awaiting his forever home. He's quickly adapting to home life and is especially fond of snuggling—just say the word, and he'll come running. With little expierence being on a leash a fenced in yard would be best for an easier transition. Bringing a dog like Falcor into your home can be a rewarding experience, offering both companionship and the satisfaction of providing a loving environment to a deserving pet. Fill out an adoption application to schedule your own private meet and greet with this furry friend.
