My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Flash is an approximately 12-18 month old male who found himself an unclaimed stray in an Oklahoma shelter. He’s a happy boy who loves everyone. His favorite things to do are play with his foster brothers and invade your personal space! Flash will play with other dogs all day long if you let him but he also enjoys a good toy or cuddle as well. Flash also really wants the kitties to play too and can be a pest to them but does not try to hurt them. He would be ok with dog savvy and patient cats.

Flash is housebroken and crate trained but he does sometimes fuss a few minutes in his crate before settling and will let you know when it’s time to get up in the morning. He rides well crated in the car. Flash enjoys the large fenced yard at his foster home and would do best in a home with a fenced yard to keep him safe and properly exercised. He has a medium to high energy level.

Flash has not had much formal training before coming into rescue. He is making a lot of progress on leash walking and his foster home is starting to work with him on learning basic commands. Flash is a blank slate and still needs to “learn to learn” but once he does we will be better able to evaluate what kind of activities he may be suited for. However, he would definitely make a great active pet and adventure companion!

Flash would absolutely want a playmate in his forever home or a family who can plan plenty of play dates for him!

Flash is a big, tall boy weighing in about 50 lbs but is working towards 45. Flash needs a home that is committed to working on some basic manners and obedience skills so that he can continue his path to being the best boy in town!

Flash is being fostered in the Springfield, MO area.
