Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Tony! He is the most happy-go-lucky, darling boy I've ever met. There is not a single day that goes by that he doesn't spend getting the zoomies, romping the dog yard, and smothering us with all of the kisses! IF you aren't already entirely in love, by nudging your hand with his head to get loved on is his trademark, well that and approaching you with far too quick of a wiggle butt. Truly irresistible! Tony is truly one of a kind, in the best ways possible. He never seems to mind much of anything at all, he's an amazing team player in our doggy playgroups! His top 3 very favorite things are: 1. People, evidently he is QUITE the cuddly companion, at about 2 years old, and 30 pounds, he will take over your sofa, AND your lap! 2. Treats, as treat motivated boy! He will do just about anything for a bite sized prize, whether it be a hot dog, or even just a typical trainer treat! 3. Dogs! He doesn't mind if they're big, little, young, old, he just looks forward to being their pal! He is a sight to see jogging our dog yard with his goofy ears bobbing up and down. He's the sweetest.Tony holds such a compassionate personality, it is simply impossible to describe! You just have to meet him! He will do great in just about any home!
My adoption fee is only $210! This fee covers all of my vaccines, microchip, nex/heartguard, heartworm test, AND my spay/neuter!
Think I might be the right fit for your home? You can apply for me here https://animalwelfarefriends.org/adopt/application/ OR you can apply in person when you come visit me any day during business hours! You can even adopt me that same day once approved!!
Please Note: All adoptions are on a first-come first served basis with approved adoption applicants. We do not hold animals unless the adoption is out-of-state, and fees apply. The animal's welfare is our first and only priority, in doing so, they are moved from the shelter into their respective homes as quickly, & humanely as possible to remove the risk of undergoing extreme stress, compromising the immune system, & behavioral concerns.
DISCLAIMER: Genetic Breed accuracy is NOT guaranteed; we assess by the following:
Interview with or paperwork from with the previous owner
Intake evaluation observations (behavior, physical appearance, and energy level)
Source documents from which to analyze characteristics
Consultation with other staff
