About Sullivan

Sullivan is a handsome young boy ready to be your lifetime companion! During a week in a foster home, Sullivan showed his true colors. His foster described him as a sleepy, quiet pup who loves to lounge but also enjoys long walks to explore his surroundings. He’s a big fan of car rides, gentle with both dogs and people, and quickly makes himself at home. Sullivan is housebroken and leash trained, though he tends to pull a bit. He’s learning crate training and is a fast learner, quickly picking up new commands and hand motions. One fun fact from his foster families is that he loves cheese—any kind will do! While he isn’t interested in toys, he thrives on activities like searching for treats. Sullivan enjoys snuggling up for bedtime, often taking up the whole bed—so be ready to squeeze in! He’s great with older kids and has been friendly with other dogs. One shelter staff member noted that he takes some time to warm up, but when he does, he’s the sweetest dog you could wish for. Sullivan shares his kennel easily and loves meeting new people. Come meet Sullivan today!
