About Daffy

Meet Daffy! This charming gentleman is around 8 years old and has been neutered, microchipped, and is up to date on all vaccinations. Daffy is a sweet and playful dog who loves his walks, tough chew toys, and spending quality time with someone willing to give him scratches. He’s a super chewer, so you'll need to have sturdy toys at home to keep him occupied. His personality can swing from wiggly excitement to calm relaxation, making him a delightful companion. After nearly three months at the shelter, Daffy is still waiting to find that special someone who will give him a forever home. Since he came in as a stray, we're unsure how Daffy interacts with other dogs or cats. He has shown some reactivity towards other dogs in the shelter, so if you have another dog, we require an introduction here before completing the adoption. To help ensure a good fit, we also provide a seven-day foster period with every adoption. Daffy is currently located in Moscow, ID, and is looking forward to meeting his new family! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
