My story

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

Meet Mikey! A 6 year old hound mix who is a spirited, energetic pup that thrives on adventure and loves being the center of attention. With a personality as big as his energy, Mikey is a playful and affectionate companion to his family—especially when he's around people he knows and trusts.

Mikey's ideal day is filled with high-energy activities like fetch, tug-of-war, and long walks on trails where he can explore to his heart's content. While he's content lounging in the backyard or sunbathing when indoors, he's always ready for action, and his exercise needs are high. If you love being outdoors and staying active, Mikey will be your perfect partner.

He's crate-trained and house-trained, and he's a good boy when it comes to his daily routine. Mikey is a well-behaved pup at home, but he can get a bit anxious outside his familiar environment, especially around other dogs or unfamiliar people. He's not a fan of dog parks, and interactions with other dogs can be unpredictable, so he'd be happiest in an environment where he's the only pup in the family or with a family that can give him the time and space he needs to feel comfortable.Once he feels secure, he's all love and affection. His family can attest to his sweet side, and Mikey's also quite clever - he knows a few fun tricks, including shake, spin, and roll-over.

Mikey is best suited to an active family who can provide him with plenty of exercise and a structured routine. He does well with a fenced-in yard to explore, and he'll need a home where he's the sole pet or with older kids who can respect his boundaries. Mikey would thrive with people who are patient, understanding, and willing to work with his quirks and needs.
He's a sweet, loving dog at heart. He's got a ton of personality, and when he's comfortable, he's playful, loyal, and a great companion. If you're an active family looking for a loyal, fun, and loving pet, Mikey might just be the perfect match for you!

Go meet their pets

CAWS does not have a conventional shelter facility - all CAWS animals waiting for adoption are in foster homes. The number of animals we can help find new homes for is closely linked to how many CAWS foster homes are available. For additional information regarding how you, too, can become a foster, please see our fostering page located on our web site!

CAWS volunteers bring cats and dogs to the PetSmart near 2100 South and 300 West in South Salt Lake on the third and fourth weekends of each month

We are also at the Sugarhouse PETCO (1165 Wilmington Ave) the first Saturday of each month.
