🦙 Meet Meatball, the 73-pound love machine! Imagine a land hippo with a heart of pure gold and zero understanding of personal space! This lovable giant believes that a dog’s true happiness is measured in cuddles, and he thinks squeezing into your lap is the ideal way to express his love! If there ever was a dog who wanted to be involved in every single thing you do, it’s Meatball! 😍🐾 This lovely lad thrives on routine and has his potty schedule down to a science. When he needs to step outside, he’ll proudly announce it with a bark and give you an enthusiastic escort to the door. 😄 Meatball is also a seasoned explorer who loves to go for walks, trotting alongside you on a leash like a true gentleman. He’s already mastered “sit” and is on his way to acing “stay” and “touch.” Let’s not forget his expert box-shredding skills—those cardboard boxes don’t stand a chance! 🎉📦 Meatball is a social butterfly who greets everyone like they’re his long-lost best friend. This bundle of joy is deeply bonded to his humans and does struggle a bit with separation anxiety, so he’s currently working on that with crate training and some confidence-building exercises. He’s made great strides but can be a bit sensitive to noises in an apartment setting, throwing a bark or two when he hears something unfamiliar. He’d absolutely blossom in a calmer, quieter home. 🌼 Now, let’s keep it real—Meatball is a champion food beggar, and he might even munch on his toys if given the opportunity. Oh, and yes, he can be a bit gassy! But hey, that's just part of his adorable charm—maybe keep some air freshener handy! 😂 So if you’re ready for a goofy, affectionate, and devoted companion who will follow you around, lean into you for love, and bring endless joy into your life, Meatball is excited to meet you! Ready to embrace this cuddly ball of happiness? 🐶💖 To start the journey to welcoming Meatball into your home, *please make sure to apply through the Buddy App*! Remember, this incredible pup cannot be adopted without going through the Buddy App, so don’t wait! He’s eager to find his forever family!
