Story
Meet Dumbo!This one-of-a-kind, 1-year-old Australian Shepherd mix may not have big floppy ears, but he does have a huge heart and a personality that just might fly away with yours. Currently living in a foster home, Dumbo is a playful, cuddly pup who lives for toy time, lap snuggles, and the occasional scoop of ice cream. He’s also a work in progress who needs the right person willing to put in the time and care he truly deserves—someone who sees beyond his cuteness and is ready to help him thrive.Dumbo is deaf, which means he experiences the world a little differently. While that doesn’t stop him from being playful, smart, and affectionate, it does mean he needs a home with structure, patience, and an understanding of how to communicate and train a deaf dog. He’s currently living in a foster home, where he`s learning how to navigate life and be the best boy ever! He’s incredibly eager to learn and connect—but it takes commitment.Dumbo needs a home without children or cats, as he can be easily startled and sometimes unsure of new experiences.

Dumbo loves tennis balls and could play fetch all day! When the rain started to come down a little harder, we headed inside where Dumbo curled up for a cozy nap. He’s a smart boy who seems to know when it’s time to play and when it’s time to relax. Dumbo would thrive in a home with plenty of space to run and play, ideally with a backyard where he can get his energy out. He also showed some natural herding instincts, so it’d be fun to see how he does with a big herding ball or other enrichment activities.`Dumbo is neutered, microchipped, up to date on his vaccinations, and ready for his forever home!
