My name is Captain!

Captain came to us from the South LA shelter where he had his eye removed after some potential trauma to it. He is a total sweetie, but he is insecure, so he will need an understanding adopter to go slow with him. He is scared of loud noises and sudden movements and can be intimated by other dogs bigger than him. He is house trained and does well in the crate overnight; It’s his safe space to pop into when he feels overwhelmed.

Captain doesn’t love change, so his adopter will need to be patient with him and give him time to decompress and gain confidence in his new surroundings. He’s very cuddly, and likes to be attached to his foster. All he wants is to lay in his Foster’s lap or be picked up. His cute signature move is to wiggle while laying on his back and bury his head in your side. He’s starting to gain confidence and not be so scared of his Foster’s other dogs. Captain is overall a very chill dog and we have no doubt his personality will continue to blossom over time! We recommend an adult only home for Captain.
