My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

We adopted Sheldon from Sparks Rescue in Santa Barbara, CA in April of this year (2020). From his history, we know he was picked up in Los Angeles, and eventually found his way here. He's 3 years old, and a total cuddle bug.

We are super sad to be letting him go, but we've realized over these past few months that our home is not the right home for him.

What Sheldon needs:
- A single pet home (he hasn't done well with our cats, and has tried to chase them away if they get too close)
- A single individual or a couple (it makes him uncomfortable when someone approached his favorite person too quickly)
- A patient owner. It took him a little while to be settled, but once he was, he was such a happy boy.
- Not to be left alone. Sheldon gets separation anxiety when he's stuck at home by himself.

What Sheldon loves:
- Exploring and walkies! Love love love
- Cuddling
- Being a couch potato
- Greenies (Yum!)
- His crate
- Playing once he is comfortable with you
