About Flint

Flint is an energetic 8-month-old Doberman mix, rescued by a Good Samaritan in Southern California. Now in foster care, he's still learning the ropes but has shown great potential. Living with smaller dogs has been a plus for him, yet he's still adjusting to walks and outings. Flint is playful and eager to bond with a family that can help guide him into becoming a well-mannered companion. This lively pup thrives on play, especially with toys he can chase. His food motivation makes training enjoyable, although he will benefit from a patient adopter who can keep the training fun. Flint is great with other dogs, although his playful energy means he sometimes needs help with social cues. He’s a high-energy boy and would make an excellent running buddy, always up for adventures. Flint requires a single-family home with breed experience and a securely fenced yard; apartment living isn't suitable for him right now. If you’re ready to help Flint grow into the gentleman we know he can be, consider welcoming him into your home. Every animal deserves a happy ending, and this one starts with you.
