About Bishop
Bishop is a sweet, loving dog who truly shines in a home setting. He thrives with people and seeks out human attention, always ready for a cuddle or to sprawl across a welcoming lap. He absolutely relishes belly scratches, turning every session into a moment of pure joy. At the shelter, Bishop got along well with other dogs and arrived alongside a small companion. In his foster home, his interactions with the resident dog have also been positive. He’s curious about cats, so a bit more time is needed to know if he can call himself cat-friendly. Bishop is both crate trained and house trained. He enters his crate easily for a treat and remains calm, even with the bustle around him. If you approach, he happily rolls onto his back for a belly rub. On leash, he can pull, so continued guidance is helpful—though he stays calm when passing even noisy dogs. Since recovering from illness, Bishop prefers to stick close to his person, though he’s been known to break into adorable zoomies. Mostly, he’s a lounger, happy simply sharing space with you, and settles down quietly at night in a human’s bed. He knows basic commands like sit and down, takes treats with a gentle mouth, and rides well in the car. Bishop will do best in a home where he’s welcomed as part of the family—close by, whether out walking or simply relaxing together. Click apply to start the adoption process.
