Dale Doback

Dale Doback is waiting to meet you! This medium-sized, neutered male dog is current on vaccinations and microchipped. Dale is a gentleman who enjoys grooming and playing fetch, though his catching skills are more enthusiastic than accurate. He's a curious supervisor of household guinea pigs and has good leash manners, though he can get excited by other dogs. Dale prefers meeting other dogs without a fence between them due to barrier frustration. He's building confidence around new people, becoming a sweet friend once he feels comfortable. Dale is looking for a patient, understanding home that will celebrate his quirks and love his goofy, lovable nature. He's described as bouncy, playful, and impossible to ignore, with a tendency to make people smile. Dale is also a world-class couch potato who loves to cuddle and has no concept of personal space when it comes to affection, though he is respectful when asked to move. He's sensitive and needs slow introductions to new friends, especially in unfamiliar places, but a few treats and calm movements can win him over. Dale is not a guard dog; he's quiet and gentle, sometimes offering a polite bark to alert you to visitors. He enjoys keeping an eye on the neighborhood and is a loyal shadow seeking safety beside his person. Dale is a happy guy who loves chasing balls and is improving his fetch game daily. Despite his athleticism, he loves to crash for cuddle time. He can be a bit of a "collector" of small treasures, like pencils, but has never chewed on them. Dale is goofy, loving, entertaining, and full of personality. He's potty and kennel trained (when another dog is nearby) and balances playful energy with couch-potato cuddles. Dale greets his people with a big, toothy smile and a full-body wiggle. He takes treats gently, waits patiently, and has excellent food manners. He would do best in a home with another dog for confidence and comfort. While he can be cautious around men initially, he warms up quickly with patience and treats. Dale may jump a little when excited but listens well and responds to commands. He has a giant head and an even bigger heart.
