About Skeeter

Meet Skeeter, an energetic, good-natured Bernadoodle with a serious love for water. If there's a pool or even just a kiddie tub around, he's in—and swims every day. Skeeter came from a caring home, but a rivalry with another male dog made it clear he deserves to be the center of attention. He's playful, quick to learn, and listens well, especially since starting obedience training. Whether he's lounging in his crate or out and about, Skeeter's mellow in the house and snuggly on the couch. He's up to date on vaccinations, neutered, enjoys car rides, and loves sleeping in bed alongside his people. Skeeter is crate trained, fully house trained, and knows how to use a dog door. He'll alert you to visitors without going overboard. While he gets along with other dogs, his size and energy mean no small children, as he might bowl them over. Skeeter needs an active adopter ready for adventure and lots of playtime. This is a dog who thrives on interaction and needs a home that can match his spark. They are waiting with paws crossed!
