Meet the delightful Colin, a charming little fellow who is just starting to embrace life in a shelter! 🎉 When he first arrived, the world felt a bit overwhelming—new sounds and sights were everywhere. But now, thanks to the kind-hearted volunteers, he's learning to wag his tail and enjoy the simple pleasures, like sniffing around the toy bin before his walks! 🎾 Colin knows how to prioritize, and oh boy, does he love snagging a ball to take along on his adventures! This adorable pup is about 4–5 years old and weighs around 40 pounds. He’s just the right size to cuddle up next to you after a good romp, but he often starts off a little shy. Don’t let that timid demeanor fool you! Give him a tiny bit of time, and Colin will reveal his sweet and affectionate side that will steal your heart. ❤️ Now, let’s talk about his fun little quirks. Colin has had some skin issues that are on the mend—he’s healing and feeling better every day! So, he’s ready for a loving home that can provide him with a soft bed, plenty of love, and maybe even some special Jolly balls to play with, because those are totally his favorite! 🪅 Colin gets along well with other dogs and keeps his kennel clean like the good boy he is! 🧹 He might be a little unsure about feline friends, so it would be best if he joins a family with older, respectful kids who can understand his gentle soul. The shelter is buzzing with the promise of forever homes for many pets, but Colin hopes every day that someone will see him and hear his heart's wish this Christmas—a warm home full of love. 🤗 What he desires most is patience, understanding, and a family who recognizes that sometimes the best companions simply need a bit of time to shine. Let’s make Colin’s wish come true—choose Colin this holiday season! Apply to adopt him through the Buddy App today! 🎄💫
