About Simba

Meet Simba! This playful prince is looking for his happily ever after. He was found as a stray, having been abandoned, and while he was microchipped, attempts to reach his previous owner were unsuccessful. At 3 years old, this handsome boy is now ready to find the forever home he deserves. Simba knows the command 'sit' and is currently learning 'down.' He has a cheerful, playful personality and takes treats ever so gently. He gets a bit overstimulated during exciting playtime, so a family that can help him refine his manners would be ideal. If you think you might have a future water dog, Simba is your guy! He loves to splash the water right out of his bowl, making a kiddie pool a wonderful addition to his new home. Simba gets along well with other dogs but is not a fan of cats. He is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, microchipped, and heartworm negative. Ready to fall in love?
