Meet Snuffleupagus

A Distinguished Gentleman with OpinionsMeet Snuffleupagus—Big Dog, Big Personality! Snuffle is is a big, handsome Dobie who has officially graduated from puppy nonsense and knows exactly what he wants: good snacks, some affection, and time to investigate the world at his own pace. His leash style is… uniquely his. Sometimes he pulls with purpose, but more often he’s a little clumsy—stop, look around, take a few steps, stop again. Why rush when there’s so much to observe? He comes when called, enjoys leaning into his people for pets, loves treats, and knows “sit.”When Snuffleupagus spots another dog, he definitely has something to say about it! He can be quite vocal and loud, so he'll need a handler who can confidently manage his enthusiasm around canine neighbors. This older gentleman has plenty of personality and isn't interested in pretending to be a puppy. He's comfortable in his own skin and ready for someone who appreciates a big, quirky dog with a soft side. If you're looking for a wise, wonderfully weird Dobie who will keep you entertained and occasionally remind you to stop and smell the roses, Snuffleupagus may be your guy! Snuffle has participated in shelter playgroups and may enjoy a compatible canine friend in his new home. Looking for a buddy for your dog? Bring him/her to the shelter for a meet and greet and see if we're a match! Check out his playgroup video here: To meet me, visit the Bradshaw Animal Shelter Tuesday-Sunday, Noon - 5:00 pm, Wednesdays, Noon - 6:00 pm. All adoptions are on a first-come, first-served basis.
