About Tom
Tom is an affectionate and playful puppy looking for his forever home. At just 5 months old, he showcases a delightful mix of playful energy and snuggly instincts. This sweet boy loves humans of all ages and gets along well with other dogs, both large and small. His polite and submissive demeanor makes him a favorite among his canine companions, and he’s even been approved by dog-savvy cats. He's a big fan of kisses and cuddles, and his foster mom believes he could excel in therapy work one day due to his intuitive nature. Tom is crate trained and uses his crate as a safe haven. He’s mostly house-trained and is working hard on signaling when he needs to go outside. He enjoys going for walks and is a champ on the leash. Although he has a normal playful bark, he keeps his prey drive low, finding geese a bit intriguing but not overly exciting. Tom is still learning and practicing his recall, as well as working on not jumping when he gets excited. He prefers to stay in a cozy spot during loud noises like lawn mowers but remains generally calm. With a scheduled neuter date coming up, Tom is ready to find a loving family. If you want a smart and adaptable companion, inquire about meeting him today!
