Come out and play! I'm Dash, a curious and spirited boy who is always up for sniffing out new adventures. My playful nature means I'm a big fan of games, especially tug! I can be just a tad timid at first, but once I get to know you, I'm all wagging tails. I'm smart too - I've mastered sit, shake and I’m great at checking in with you. I would benefit from keeping busy with games and chews. I'm eager to learn more and would make the perfect training partner. I am crate trained and always can settle in my crate if you leave the house and at bedtime- and even better with a peanut butter kong. I would trade my life savings for a hot dog, which makes me wonderful when learning new behaviors and tricks, and even better I am clicker trained!
I walk beautifully on a leash and want to walk by your side and check in with you along the way. I live to please. I make these adorable little grunts, when you scratch that sweet spot behind my ear. I have the sweetest face and never turndown an opportunity to gaze at you with big puppy dog eyes. I'm super attentive and will always be there to listen to everything you have to share after a long day. I have energy for whatever you want to do, but I also promise to match it with an equal amount of love. I will tell you that I prefer people to other pups and would like to be your one and only. If you're looking for a loyal, playful, and smart companion, then I'm your guy. Adopt me and let's start our adventure together!
Dash's new family will receive ongoing support from our Behavior and Training team, a year's supply of free food and a shopping spree courtesy of Pampered Pet (https://pamperedpetboutiquebarkery.com/), a $250 gift card to Sniffspot (for private dog parks where Dash can run https://www.sniffspot.com/), and a standard behavior modification coaching package (valued at $750) with a local dog trainer. His adoption fee has also been waived.
