About Dodger
Meet Dodger, a sweet and energetic large mix, looking for his furever home! This lovable boy is full of energy and would thrive in a home where he can get plenty of exercise and attention. Dodger loves long walks, playing with his toys, and especially enjoys romping around with his doggie sister. They like to play chase, and also love to wrestle! He is doing a good job playing gently with his smaller doggie sister. Dodger is very social, always curious and excited to say “”hi”” to new dogs and people he meets on his walks. He walks well on leash and doesn’t generally pull – he would likely make a great running companion!
When he’s not following his doggie sister around the house, he is following his people. If you’re busy he has no problem entertaining himself with toys, and will come check on you once in a while for a pat. Once you sit down, he wants to be touching you, either curling up with you on the couch or laying down close at your feet. He’s also great with kids and would make a perfect family companion – for him, the more pats and people to play with, the better! Dodger has also met cats, and doesn’t seem to take any interest in them.
Dodger is highly food motivated and eager to please – he has already learned “sit”, “shake a paw”, “down”, and is currently working on “roll over”. He has also learned to stop at the back door to have his feet wiped before coming in the house. He has shown no signs of resource guarding, and does not try to steal his doggie sister’s food. He generally goes and stands at the door if he needs to go outside, and is well on his way to being fully potty trained. He likes to sleep beside the bed at night, close to his people. During the day if he has to be home alone, he’s perfectly happy to curl up in his crate with a toy. Dodger currently weighs 52 pounds and is growing steadily.
Dodger is a well-behaved and affectionate boy who would do best in a home where he can enjoy the outdoors and the cold snowy weather he adores. If you’re looking for a loyal, playful, and loving dog to join your family, Dodger would be the perfect fit!
