About Dustin

Dustin is a sweet boy who came to us as a stray, eager to find his forever home. This friendly pup approached a good Samaritan while on a walk, demonstrating his charming personality. He spent some time in a fenced yard where he played happily until he could receive help finding his true family. Sadly, he wasn't chipped or tagged, and no one came to claim him during his stray hold. Dustin can be a bit nervous, as the shelter can be overwhelming. When he met another dog here, he was initially hesitant but quickly showed his playful side with tail wags and zoomies. This handsome pup is ready for a family who will give him the love and attention he deserves. He’s not yet in our adoption kennels but is waiting for his own space to shine. Adoption requires commitment, as Dustin deserves nothing less than a loving forever home. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. Meet and greets are encouraged with other dogs and children, but we currently don’t have information on how he interacts with cats. Ready to see if you and Dustin are a match? Come meet him!
