About Snickers

Meet Snickers! This lively baby is still getting the hang of things. Although he’s a bit shy about going outside to do his business, he's learning. Snickers is fond of food—so much so that he tends to try to eat not only his meals but his siblings’ too! For now, separate feedings are ideal. He already knows commands like sit, stay, and give paw. Grooming can be a bit of a challenge since Snickers isn’t one for nail filing or coat wiping, but he's working through it. While he prefers to choose when to receive affection, he loves to play, especially with his squeaky toys, which he herds and collects like a pro. Snickers has a lot of energy and is always ready for an adventure. He gets along well with dogs but isn’t suited for families with young children. Snickers is looking for someone who can be patient with his training. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
