History: Spot is a super handsome boy who was surrendered to rescue after needing a second chance to a good life. He is an A+ good boy who hopes to find his forever home soon!
A note from the foster: Hello! My name is Spot. My foster family has lovingly dubbed me Spotify. I kind of like it. I'm just a happy guy. If my bio could have music I'd pick the Happy Dog song DJ Moody. That's 100% me! My tail wags so hard that my whole back-end wiggles.
I am house trained and keep my kennel clean. I have learned to love the kennel and will sometime just go lay inside with the door open. I can be trusted to be left out for short periods of time, so don't always need to be in the kennel. I really don't mind it though. Speaking of things I love....I LOVE ice cubes. When I hear the ice machine popping out cubes for someone I'll come running and stand next to you with my bestest puppy-dog eyes begging for you to give me one or two or ten.
I also LOVE treats and food. I eat with the pack at my foster home. I have to wait to be very last to get my food. It's hard to contain my excitement, so I try to sit still, but sometimes I just can help but jump up a little. I have learned that the humans prefer me to keep my feet to myself, so now when I jump, I just jump up into air. I'm just such a happy guy it's hard to contain my joy. I love pack treat time when we all have to sit and wait our turn to get a treat. It's sooooo hard to wait, but I'm practicing a lot and getting lots better at sitting still and waiting my turn.
I love going on car rides. Even if I wait in the car while my people run a quick errand. I just love adventures. I am an absolute A+ snuggler. I'll keep your lap warm and take all the pets you'll give. Belly rubs and ear scratches are encouraged during snuggle time. Oh...and you should know I love to play with the water from the hose. I'll chomp and bite at the water as you spray it. I'm a bit sad that it's been too cold to play with the hose. I need to add one more thing to the list of things that I love....sparks from the fire. I will happily stand and watch the fire and try to catch any sparks that fly up into the air. I may have gotten a little overzealous a time or two and singed my whiskers, yikes! Whoever my forever family is has to know there will never be a dull moment with me around.
My foster home has with several other dogs that I have learned to understand and respect. I do struggle with new dogs sometimes, so need slow introductions. My foster mom says I'm just dog selective. I know she understands because she doesn't like all other people either. I'll need a family that understands this about me.
I'm just a happy guy who needs a family to call my own; perhaps that's you?
Adoption Fee: $500 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsively more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
