My story

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

CAPE MAY, NJ: Just like his name, handsome Halo is heavenly – and this angel needs a loving home in which he can shine!

Halo is 2 years old and weighs around 43 lbs. Sadly, Halo was not cared for well prior to being surrendered in January 2024 (then known as Bentley). From his behavior it seems like there was not enough food to go around in his previous home and/or he spent most of his time in a crate. But since being rescued by AmsterDog in March 2024, Halo has been gaining confidence – and a few well-deserved pounds – in his loving foster home. Halo loves to spend time outside soaking up the sunshine and is easily walked on a leash.

When Halo looks your way, you can not help but be awed by his stunning ice-blue eyes. His perfect and expressive face is framed by the cutest, perkiest ears! Halo can be a little shy at first, so he needs a patient home that will allow him to decompress fully, but he really is a treasure of a dog. Once he is comfortable with you, Halo is affectionate, social and acts like a puppy. He loves being with you, loves being pet and can “sit” and “lay down” for treats. Halo loves other dogs, too! He previously lived with children and we think he would be ok with dog-savvy kids 8+ years old. Halo’s puppy energy is easily combatted with regular exercise and he responds really well to enrichment items – a long lasting chew can really calm him down. He is also crate-trained and impeccably house-trained, fully vetted, and neutered.

Sweet boy Halo has been through so much and he is ready to focus on a future of LOVE – but don’t forget the treats, too! If you can open your heart and home to deserving Halo, please contact AmsterDog at 917-689-8414. Apply to adopt Halo at AmsterDog.org.

Thanks for caring about a pet in need!
