Story
Hey everyone! Tommy's the name and finding my forever family is my game! If you're new around here, take a look at everything my friends here have to say about me.I'm an active guy, and I'd love to have a family that wants to get up and go - if you're looking for a copilot for your adventures, I'm the dog for you! I'm even doing great on the running team here at OHS.Toys are the best, and I love to play with them to help get my energy out! I like to carry stuffies with me on walks, and to romp with them in the yard. If you have a ball (or even better, a frisbee) I'm always up for a game of fetch!Playtime sounds great, but I love a good snuggle sesh too! I've been known to lean in for pets and roll over for belly rubs from my favorite people.I have had fun meeting dogs here at the shelter, but I like to play rough and rowdy, so I'll need to meet any future canine siblings to make sure we hit it off! Even better? I'm part of the Diamond in the Ruff program, which you can learn more about here. Basically, we'll get to spend plenty of time together before we officially seal the deal.
