My story

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

Meet Burly!

What a sweet boy! He is a large, goofy guy who loves walks and attention. Despite being so big and strong, he is surprisingly gentle taking treats. Once his nose hits the ground he is on the move. He loves new smells and places to explore. He will happily return to you for treats. Burly would love a fenced-in yard or frequent leash walks for exercise and enrichment.

Burly is a big, happy dude who loves to have fun! He loves to run and play with toys. He knows how to sit, and would love to learn some more tricks and manners. Burly is eager to please, especially if it involves cookies. He just wants a person and home to call his own. He has so much love to give. He's just waiting for his second chance. Call about this lovable guy today!

We have noticed that Burly likes cats a little too much (will chase them), so we recommend he go into a home with none. He is curious but scared of chickens.

Burly has done well with playing after very long and slow introductions. He can be unsure of new dogs, and needs to go at his pace. He doesn't like to share food or water bowls with other dogs. So altogether I wouldn't suggest he live with another dog, unless the family is prepared to manage and help him in sharing situations.

He is current on all his age-appropriate vaccines, and preventatives, microchipped and neutered.

Since being with us for more than 6 months, we consider him one our Lonely Hearts which makes his adoption $0 for the summer because he is being sponsored.
