About Bolt

Meet Bolt! This energetic young male dog has a playful nature and enjoys being around children and other dogs. He shares a special bond with his dad, Thor, and they love to play and wrestle together. While Bolt has been around cats, he tends to chase, so slow introductions and supervision are essential when introducing him to feline friends. When visitors arrive, he might bark initially but quickly settles down, excitedly greeting new friends with enthusiastic jumps and requests for affection. He is reportedly potty and crate trained, as well as leash trained, which should help him transition smoothly into his new home. However, he may whine when left alone and might require some time to adjust to changes in his environment. Look forward to a playful and loving companion in Bolt! What are you waiting for?
