My story

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

Beckham is bouncy little brindle boy with the sweetest puppy eyes. Beckham came to us with deep lacerations around his pelvic area that suggested something was tied around him tightly for a prolonged period of time. The horrific condition this baby was in was absolutely heartbreaking BUT this dude has moved on in his life with a vengeance and seizes everyday with nothing but pure innocent joy. It's truly hugs our hearts.

One reason someone should adopt Beckham is because he has the sweetest heart with so much love to give. This boy has suffered so much in his short 1 to 2 years of life but hasn't looked back. He is one of the dogs that had an awful life and deserves his happily ever after. Beckham is a high energy dog. His perfect family would be one that enforces rules and structure. One that has patience and is willing to put in the work to encourage Beckham to continue growing up to be the best boy. Something that is extra special about Beckham is how smart he is. He catches on to new tricks and commands SO quick. He is very treat motivated and responds beautifully to confident training. So training with him would be awesome.

Beckham absolutely loves other dogs so much that sometimes he comes on a little but too strong. Making friends is his absolute favorite but is a little bit too extra sometimes. So a patient yet playful pup would be best. Beckham is neutral with cats. He seems to love every animal so he might try to play with them, so a dog-friendly cat would be best if you have cats in the home. Beckham also loves children. He's so sweet with them and is the gentlest boy. He seems to love everyone he meets.

Beckham is also working on crate training, he knows "sit" and "down" and is working on "place", "stay", and "leave it".
