Meet Shadow ~
Shadow!!!!!!The excitement when he wants to eat to go outside… he dances . He goes back to his foster tomorrow night. He’s the coolest dog! Just need patience with him. A calmer house. He certainly doesn’t like the other dogs going near his bone or chewy treats. That’s ok. I have others just like that . We managed to get some more pics and videos. So handsome! Meet Shadow! This sweet shy terrier mix is around eight years old and 20 to 25 pounds. He is very shy at first but the sweetest boy once he warms up. He just needs someone willing to go slow and be patient with him while he learns he can tryst you! He is house trained and crate trained. Great with other dogs. The perfect companion! Shadow is a sweet and shy boy whose owner recently passed away. He is now in need of a new family. He's around 20 pounds and 7 years old. Good with other dogs. Very scared right now as his whole world has changed. Available dogs are met by pre-approved adopters ONLY after a match is made. The application is the first step.
