About Sullivan

Sullivan is a handsome young boy eager to find his forever friend. During a recent week in a foster home, he thrived and showed off his gentle nature. His foster remarked, "Sullivan is a sleepy, quiet boy who loves lounging but enjoys long walks where he can explore and sniff everything. He loves car rides too!" Sullivan is kind to other dogs and warms up to people who give him attention. He’s housebroken, leash trained—though he can be a bit of a puller—and learning about crate training. Sullivan prefers the company of loved ones and doesn’t like to be left alone. He is a fast learner, already picking up on commands like 'sit' and 'paw'. A few fun tidbits about him include his love for cheese—whether it's string cheese, cheese wiz, or shredded, he can't resist! Instead of toys, he enjoys searching for hidden treats, and he has a habit of sleeping with his arms and legs in the air, signaling he’s ready for some belly rubs. This sweet boy did well with older kids and was friendly with other dogs. Many fans at the shelter adore him for his polite demeanor and affectionate nature. One supporter shared, “Sullivan is a sweet soul who takes a little time to feel comfortable, but once he does, he’s the SWEETEST pup.” He is looking for a caring family who will help him feel safe and loved. Sullivan shares his kennel with a buddy and has been social and easygoing in playgroup. Don’t miss the chance to meet this wonderful dog today!
