My story

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

 



Meet Johnny Cash, the Man in Black himself! Johnny is as genuine as they come. He’s passionate, introspective, and has a knack for turning life’s struggles into beautiful songs. Whether you’re in need of a comforting ballad or a toe-tapping anthem, he’s got the perfect track to match your mood. His foster parents have described him as a big goofy baby with the most soulful puppy dog eyes! 

Johnny is looking for a family of like-minded homebody's that appreciate his sweet introverted qualities. He's a gentle soul so it takes him time and patience to warm up to new people, but once he does he's very eager to please his humans. He adores his toys, and likes to cuddle up to them in a pile when he sleeps (even his hard chew bones)! His funniest trait is that he's quite the active dreamer so he tends to wiggle around in silly positions as he sleeps!

Johnny came to PAWS after being found with an injury, but he's healed up very well! We're still learning more about how Johnny would feel about living with other animals, but we're optimistic that he would do well with a confident patient buddy to encourage him to come out of his shell a bit more. If you’re ready to make memories that will last a lifetime and fill your days with songs, Johnny is waiting for you! Adopt Johnny Cash today and let the music play!
