This handsome ham is Dug! Dug is a 1.5 year old, 63 pound, Pittie mix looking to melt your heart. This good boy has been looking everywhere for his forever friend, could it be you?
Dug came to us from the Sonoma County Animal Shelter and we couldn’t be happier he did. From those gorgeous amber eyes, to that magnificent meatball head and wiggly booty, we knew Dug was destined to be a Rocket Dog! This beautiful beefy boy loves being around people. He likes leaning hard against you while you give him lots and lots of butt scratches. He will give you lots of stinky kisses in exchange for lots of lap time!
Dug has pretty good leash manners as well. He starts out a little excited but finds his rhythm quickly. He loves sticking that gorgeous snout into anything he can and giving it a snorty snuff. He has lots of energy and would need a home that likes longer walks or hikes as much as he does! He’s a little too distracted to be much of a runner, but we think with time he could be a great adventure buddy.
Delightful Dug is stressed out from the ups and downs of shelter life, and this stress has caused him to become too jumpy and mouthy with the people he loves so much. He’s a big boy so this can be a bit overwhelming at times. Dug needs an adult only household that would be willing to get him the professional positive reinforcement training he needs to help him learn that four paws on the floor is the best way to be! This amazingly goofy guy should also be the only pet in the home for now, he’s going to need to be the center of attention while he learns with you! Dug is going to need a loving and patient home that sees him as the rough cut gem he is. With training, time, even more love, and a little understanding, we think Dug is going to become an amazing best friend for a very lucky person.
