About Dr. Dog And Snoopy

Dr. Dog (gray and white) hangs back at first, watching from a distance and sizing things up. He does best with people who move slow and give him plenty of space to make up his mind—if you are steady and patient with him, he’ll eventually sneak into your lap and curl up for a nap. He startles pretty easily, so no sudden moves, and he is not one for being picked up or handled a lot; push his limits, and he may bite. Snoopy (black and white) guards his trust even more fiercely. Quick gestures send him running, and he needs plenty of time before he considers anyone a friend. But if you put in the work, Snoopy opens up, even letting himself enjoy gentle affection. He’s a bit reserved with people, but the sight of another dog lights him up—Snoopy loves dog friends. Dr. Dog and Snoopy are a bonded pair; they look out for each other and need to stay together. They’re searching for a patient, understanding home that will let them open up on their own schedule. Give them that, and you’ll earn loyalty you can’t buy.
