About Simba

Meet Simba! This big, handsome guy thrives in the outdoors and is in search of a home with a secure, fenced yard, ideally 6 feet high or more. He loves to stretch his legs, play tug-of-war, and enjoy his toys. At approximately 3.5 years old, Simba is a loyal protector who forms deep bonds with his people and desires nothing more than to be by your side. Simba will do best as the only male dog in the home, and any female dogs must be introduced before adoption. Unfortunately, he does not get along with cats. Simba is known to be good with children under 10 and genuinely enjoys bath time. Loud noises and thunderstorms can make him anxious, and he often seeks comfort by hiding under blankets. Roughhousing or play fighting is not his style, as he can become protective of his owners. Simba weighs around 70 lbs. and has a short coat in a lovely golden and white/cream color.
