About Acacia

Acacia A183945 25 lb. neutered male, approx 8 months old -This boy is fun and playful! -Out in the yard he had fun chasing after a tennis ball but he doesn't understand the "retrieve" part yet -He loves pets and flipping over for belly rubs -He didn't seem to understand how to play with a stuffie but over time, with encouragement, he started to play a little bit with it -He is treat motivated, picking up "sit" and takes them decently. He had a hard time figuring out how to take them from my hand. -Overall he's a very good boy who just needs guidance and training! -He definitely needs some work on leash still. As of right now he twirls and bounces and wraps around your legs. He just needs some practice! -Will need some puppy training. Please keep that in mind if you want a puppy. They require time and patience to be the best that they can be! -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.
