About Trap
Known endearingly as "Dorito Ears," Trap is an active, clever mixed-breed dog with a great head for training. He picks up new commands easily, already mastering the basics, and is eager for more—especially when treats are involved. Trap thrives in an environment where he has both mental and physical outlets. He’s happiest with someone who enjoys daily walks or spends time in the yard, and he’ll keep himself busy hunting down balls and toys while checking in to be your loyal garden helper. Dog selective, Trap can befriend other dogs with careful introductions, and trusts the people he knows. He tends to warm up to new folks at his own pace. After some activity, Trap transitions to a laidback mode, happily snuggling, napping, and playing with his favorite puzzle games. He is fully house trained, travels well in the car, and delights in little rituals like gathering his toys in his chosen safe space. While he’s calm much of the time, Trap gets startled by kitchen sizzles and the vacuum, but his curiosity usually gets the best of him—he’ll keep an eye on your dishwasher. He knows plenty of words, with a strong “sit,” solid recall, and understanding of directions like “home,” “find it,” and “let’s go.” Trap will do well with a person who wants to engage both his body and his mind. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
