About Morton Von Licktenstein

Meet Morton Von Licktenstein, affectionately known as Morty! At around 10 years old, this charming gentleman is ready to embrace the good life. He found himself at a crowded city shelter when his previous owner surrendered him, leaving his history a mystery. Their loss is a true opportunity for someone special. Despite the touch of gray on his face, Morty is full of energy and the perfect mix of adventure seeker and couch buddy. He enjoys leisurely strolls, a spirited game of fetch, or a relaxing time in the yard. After some fun outdoors, he loves nothing more than curling up on a cozy bed or snuggling during a movie night. If there’s one thing Morty adores, it’s being outside. From neighborhood walks to sunbathing, he lights up during his outdoor adventures, especially performing his joyful "Morty Shuffle"—a delightful routine of rolling in the grass. Fully house trained and with excellent leash manners, he’s non-reactive to people and other dogs while walking. Morty knows basic commands like "sit" and "shake" and thrives on learning, especially with treats involved. Although he has experienced some anxiety due to past changes, he has made great strides in foster care and is becoming more comfortable each day. Morty would be happiest in a home where he can have plenty of outdoor time, whether that’s in a fenced yard or on a supervised tie-out. He could live with dog-savvy children and is looking for a family ready to offer him the love and appreciation he deserves. Although he gets along with other dogs, a calm companion who respects boundaries would be ideal, while a cat-free home is preferred. Morty has been overlooked for too long, but he’s resilient, affectionate, and eager to enjoy his golden years surrounded by people who cherish him. If you’re searching for a loyal friend with a heart of gold and the cutest grass-rolling dance move, Morty is ready to meet you! Click apply to start the adoption process.
