About Garfield
Meet Garfield! This super cute one-year-old has a lively spirit and a personality that shines. He was rescued from an overcrowded shelter, along with his brother Odie, and has quickly adapted to a joyful life out of confinement. While he loves company, these two need to find separate homes for their well-being. Garfield is a delightful mix, likely a Jack Russell Terrier and Yorkshire Terrier. Weighing in at about 9.8 pounds, he's sprightly but not a lapdog; he enjoys cuddling after burning off some energy. His favorite activities include playing and running around, just being part of the fun. He's known for being friendly with everyone he meets, though he has a tendency to be a bit persistent with humping other dogs. A neuter procedure is on the horizon to help with that. Dog-friendly and tolerant around kids he's met, Garfield is still learning about proper training commands and leash walking. He has yet to be fully potty trained but is making progress. While he's vocal and energetic, he will thrive best in a home that can match his activity level and provide consistent training. Home and vet checks are required, and no apartments, please — Garfield needs space to thrive. He’s ready to bring fun adventures into your life! Located in Yorktown, VA.
