Hi I’m Daxton! 41lbs Neutered Between 1 1/2-2 years old My friends call me Dax (or Velcro, for reasons you’ll quickly understand). I’m a happy, goofy, people-loving guy who truly believes I should be wherever you are. Sitting? I’m there. Standing up? Also there. Taking one single step? Wow, exciting, I’m coming too. I really love my people and sticking by their side is kind of my thing. I’m doing great with house training — I haven’t had any accidents and I’m very polite about going outside. I don’t really “signal,” but if you take me out, I’ll handle my business like a pro. Just make sure I potty before playtime, because once I’m playing with dog friends… well… playtime is LIFE. My crate is my safe space. I like to eat my meals, enjoy bones, and stash my toys in there, and I sleep through the night like a champ. If you leave the house, I might sing you the song of my people when you come back (I just missed you, okay?!). If you’re home though, I’d much rather be hanging out with you. I LOVE other dogs. Like… love love. So much that I once jumped a fence just to go say hi to the neighbor dogs. No regrets. I live with dogs, kids (big and little!), and even a cat — I’m curious about the cat, but I’ve learned my manners after she made it very clear she’s not interested in my friendship. Kids? Obsessed. Dogs? Best friends. Cats? Respectfully admired from a distance. I enjoy plush toys, Nyla-bone style chews, and playing fetch… although returning the ball is still under review. I’m playful, affectionate, and a total snuggle bug once I’m tired out. I’m working on my leash skills and my jumping — I get excited and sometimes forget that not everyone wants a flying hug. I know “sit,” and I’m learning “off,” and I’m trying my best because I’m a good boy who wants to make you proud. A few important things you should know about me:     •    Car rides make me a little nervous     •    Windy days are suspicious     •    I eat my food very fast     •    I have been caught stealing “treats” from the litter box (I’m sorry, I have regrets) Overall, I’m a loving, playful, loyal guy with a big heart and a bigger personality. If you’re looking for a dog who will adore you endlessly, follow you everywhere, and make your house feel extra full of love — I might just be your perfect match! Interested in adopting?
