Gravel A183286 46 lb. neutered male, approx 1 1/2 years old -He's a handsome boy with beautiful markings and a heart full of love to give. On leash, he pulls a bit but is very manageable overall. -He's incredibly people-oriented and greets everyone with enthusiastic "hugs," happily jumping up to say hello. -In the yard, he enjoyed wandering and exploring, but his favorite place is right by your side--if you sit on the floor, he'll climb right into your lap, and if you're in a chair, he'll try to join you there too! -He's very affectionate and loves giving kisses -He's treat-motivated, will sit at times, and takes treats gently, though he may not always be focused on eating them. He showed he can follow cues, but became nervous with my squeaker. -He's not quite sure about toys yet and can be a little sensitive to new or sudden stimuli, so he'll benefit from a calm, patient environment where he can build confidence at his own pace. -Like many working-type dogs, he has some energy and awareness of his surroundings, which can show up as a bit of pacing when he's unsure. With time, consistency, and reassurance, he'll settle in and thrive. This sweet, affectionate boy just needs a little patience to feel safe--and once he does, he'll be an incredibly loyal and loving companion. -Seems non reactive to dogs nearby and may do well living with a fur sibling after slow and proper intros Unknown behavior with dogs/cats/kids *Meet all of our adoptable pets on our website friendsofdacc.org/adopt *Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. *Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lower stress hormones and allow the dog to show more personality after they have settled in. *There is a suggested donation of $100 for our dogs, payable by cash, check or through paypal at the time of the adoption. *To meet them please go to front door and a DACC staff member will assist you with adoption or fostering. **And when coming to meet one of our dogs, please bring all the humans with you, but leave any current dogs at home.
