About Spoons #1

Spoons is an adorable 1-year-old Terrier mix who is the perfect combination of playful puppy energy and affectionate cuddles. He's happiest going for walks, chasing a ball in the yard, or curling up next to his favorite people—or even better, another dog—for a cozy nap. This handsome tuxedo boy has made wonderful progress in foster care. He's almost fully house-trained with a consistent routine and is doing great with crate training. While he may whine for a minute when left alone, he settles quickly and can comfortably spend 4–6 hours crated while you're away. Spoons loves his daily walks and has lovely leash manners, naturally staying close to his person without pulling. New dogs can make him a little nervous at first, especially larger dogs, but once he gets to know them, he's a sweet and playful companion. He gets along well with other dogs after a proper introduction and has also done well with cats. Like any young pup, Spoons is still learning his manners. He can be a little mouthy during play and enjoys testing boundaries now and then, but he's eager to learn, highly food motivated, and responds well to patient, consistent guidance. When it's time to relax, Spoons is an expert cuddler. He loves stuffed Kongs, chewing on bones, belly rubs, and has an adorable habit of resting his head on you or offering his paw for extra affection. His daily zoomies and goofy personality are guaranteed to make you smile.

Ideal Home

Spoons would love a home with a securely fenced yard and another friendly dog to help build his confidence. Most of all, he's looking for a family ready to continue his training and give him the love and structure every puppy deserves.

Ongoing Health

Spoons' adoption fee of $400 covers his spay/neuter, microchip, and age-appropriate DAPP and rabies vaccinations. Adopters are responsible for all vaccinations after adoption.

Training & Support

Like any young pup, Spoons is still learning his manners. He can be a little mouthy during play and enjoys testing boundaries now and then, but he's eager to learn, highly food motivated, and responds well to patient, consistent guidance.
