About Winston

Winston is a lovable, easygoing guy with a grin that wins over just about everyone he meets. When he arrived as a stray, he quickly became a staff favorite because of his gentle spirit and his constant need to be part of whatever is going on. Winston likes to stay close—he’s the type to quietly hang out in the office while you work, tag along for group walks, or curl up for some well-earned downtime. Around the rescue, people call him the "Best Office Buddy" and rely on him to show new volunteers how it's done, always spreading smiles as he goes. He walks beautifully on a leash, knows his basic commands, and is very treat-motivated. Winston has a funny habit of carrying a toy in his mouth pretty much everywhere, telling the world he’s content. He spent some time in a home with young kids, but that situation wasn’t the best fit—Winston seems to thrive best in an adult or teen household where his gentle ways are appreciated. If you want a loyal companion who brings good manners, a goofy grin, and a lot of heart, Winston is ready to meet you. Fun fact: With a birthday on April 1st, Winston is an Aries—so it’s no surprise he’s got that brave, affectionate streak. Click apply to start the adoption process.
