Linus is about 2-years-old and 45 lbs. Up to date on everything. He is a very good boy and very smart. Linus was found locked in a crate in an abandoned home. Poor boy was skin and bones, covered in urine and feces. He has made a full recovery, but with that kind of trauma comes trust issues. Linus does NOT like people greeting him. He needs people to give him space, feed him some treats and build trust first. Linus needs a home where they understand that he has stranger danger and to NOT let people approach. The report from the shelter: Like the gentle, kindhearted Peanuts character he’s named after, Linus is thoughtful, sensitive, and truly good at heart — he just needs someone to believe in him. ✨ Linus’ Best Qualities (because there are so many): • Walks nicely on a leash — thoughtful, not chaotic • Gentle treat taker — soft soul, soft mouth • Moderate energy — not a wild Charlie Brown football scene • Very dog-friendly — he LOVES dog friends and they help him feel brave 🏠 Linus is searching for: A home that can offer patience, consistency, love, and guidance. Somewhere he can exhale, settle, and remember that the world can be kind. If you’ve ever loved an underdog… If you’ve ever believed in second chances… If you’ve ever cheered for Charlie Brown when the world seemed unfair… FREE TRAINING IS INCLUDED for any foster or adopter.
