Dogs

Xander is a male Shetland Shepherd mix ready for his forever home. Xander is a sweetheart who is also smart and very engaged. He is interested in everything that his foster mom does and is never far from her side. He makes an exceptional companion. He has not caused any household mischief-- no accidents, destruction or chewing. He has learned the commands “sit,” “stay,” “lay down,” and to wait for permission before jumping out of the car or exiting the house. He is still very much a goofy puppy though, and sometimes the rules can be hard to remember. Xander loves people, and when we go to the park he says hi to every person he sees. He is so confused about the joggers though: why won’t they stop to say hi too? He likes other dogs as well. The puppy in him wants to play hard...perhaps a little too hard for small or senior dogs. Xander has a condition that calls for a special diet and medication with his food, but he doesn’t let it get him down. He loves life and people and fun! He likes to give kisses on the nose and he’ll make someone such an excellent best friend and companion! If you are interested in meeting or adopting Xander, please complete an online application.
