About DougBoston MA

Doug is a 4-year-old male Dalmatian, weighing in at a solid 72 pounds. He’s neutered, fully vaccinated, and house-trained, making him a great companion for someone ready to offer him a loving home. This boy has a knack for obedience and shows off his skills with various tricks. Doug is friendly with both dogs and cats, but can be cautious around new people. As he continues to settle in, Doug's affectionate nature emerges, especially when he's snuggled up with his favorite toys or under a warm blanket. He’s seeking a patient owner who understands that he needs time to build confidence in unfamiliar situations. Doug has begun medication for anxiety, which will help him adapt better. The ideal home for him would provide calmness and predictability, assisting him as he grows more comfortable in his surroundings. While we don't know how he interacts with children or other small animals, Doug shows a lot of potential as a loyal companion.
