About Smokey
Smokey stands out for his confidence, sharp mind, and love of a challenge. Recently returned to the rescue because he gets bored easily—he’s managed to clear a ten-foot fence on more than one occasion. Smokey does best with someone who has the time and interest to keep him busy, both mentally and physically. He really thrives on training and is eager to pick up new things, so trick training or advanced obedience would suit him. Smokey is highly motivated and soaks up attention from both people and dogs—he gets along great with other pups and is well known as a crowd favorite around the rescue. If you’re looking for a loyal, energetic companion and are ready for an intelligent dog who needs daily engagement, Smokey could be the perfect fit. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
