My name is
Solomon!

Say hello to Solomon! He is a loyal companion with a happy-go-lucky spirit and a few quirks that make him all the more endearing. Solomon has settled into a nice routine where he enjoys his walks. He’s not overly playful with other dogs, preferring to coexist peacefully, but he’s got a playful side that comes out when it’s just him, a tennis ball, and a patch of grass to roll around in.

In the mornings, Solomon is quick to start his day, heading outside with his dog foster sibling for a potty break before coming back in for breakfast. He’s not one to spend long hours in his kennel, as he mostly sleeps or entertains himself in the house with his toys while his human works from home. By evening, he’s ready for dinner and some quality time snuggling up in bed, enjoying a good TV show.

Solomon’s got some unique habits that make him special. When he’s in the mood for pets, he’ll wrap his long arms around your wrist—just his way of saying he’s ready for some affection. He loves looking out the car window, giving chin licks, and laying his head on your chest while sitting on the couch. When he’s excited, you’ll find him rolling around in the grass with pure joy. And when he’s tired, he’ll tuck himself into his kennel for the night, where he feels safe and comfortable.

Solomon is a great committed companion. He’s adaptable, and would do well either as the only dog or with a small, calm canine friend. A home with an older couple who’s around a lot might be just the right fit for this sweet, quirky boy! 

He has not been introduced to children or cats, young children may not be a great fit for him as he can get nervous around sudden movements and loud noises. 

Solomon was diagnosed with heart failure due to a past heartworm infection, because of this he takes daily medication to reduce fluid buildup and help him stay comfortable. 

Solomon  is from Texas.
