During playgroups, Desmond was a riot! From the first minute in the yard, he let it be known that he was there to ROCK OUT! He ran, chased, wrestled, and seemed to love interacting with the other dogs. He played with females and males, and he seemed to believe that he was King for the Day! He had an absolute blast.
Desmond is a 4-year-old male dog with a calm, friendly personality and a love for the outdoors. Though he gets excited to head outside, he settles quickly and is easy to leash. He has no problem walking past other dogs and enjoys sniffing and exploring his surroundings. Out on walks, Desmond is happy and social, often wanting to greet other dogs he encounters. Not particularly food-motivated, he does accept treats once he's back in his kennel. Desmond is currently on Omega fish oil to support his skin health (not contagious) as he needs a bit of extra nourishment. He's a fantastic walker, making him an ideal choice for anyone who enjoys daily walks and would like a loyal companion by their side.
Although he is heartworm positive, it is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center has provided a $400 sponsorship to help cover the cost of treatment.
If you're interested in learning more about Desmond, please reach out to our Volunteer Matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Desmond 254533."
Desmond is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
