Thank you!
Cole is looking for his next new best pal! He’s spunky and fun and loves to play fetch. Even though he is a higher-energy boy outdoors, he settles so nicely in his room. He'll occupy himself with a toy or cuddle up in his bed and wait patiently for his turn to go outside. He'd make a great companion for someone who is looking for a copilot for all of their adventures but wants a snuggle buddy at night.
Cole is an affectionate boy who has no shame in showing off his belly for a good belly rub!
Cole loves every human that he meets but shouldn't live with small children as he can be jumpy when he's really excited to see his people.
Cole has his own room so he is left loose throughout the day without having any accidents. We crate him overnight and he does great in a crate as well.
He is quiet all day unless he can hear that his favorite dog walker is at the shelter!
Other Dogs: When Cole first arrived, he wasn't thrilled about other dogs and we have previously posted him as an only dog. However recently, thanks to the incredible wizardry of Tyler (Cole's favorite dog walker), he is learning social skills. He has been on a few walks now with Tyler's dog (adopted from Lighthouse!) and the two of them get along really well. We're not sure if Cole could live with another dog right now, but now we know that Cole has the potential to make more dog friends
Cats: Unknown - we can test him for applicants

More about this rescue
At Lighthouse Animal Shelter, an all volunteer, 501(c)3 organization, we promote the welfare of animals at risk of euthanasia. We also work with the community to maximize efforts in reducing pet overpopulation.
We rescue the majority of our dogs from high-intake shelters down south (the majority being from Kentucky, South Carolina & North Carolina) and get organize transport to our New Bedford shelter for adoption. We focus on last-call death row dogs.
The cats in our care are all local strays or surrenders and are generally adults to seniors.
