Deebo

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
  This sweet, snorty guy is the definition of easygoing charm!  Deebo is a silly but often chill cuddle bug who loves soft toys, scritches on his sides, and lounging in the sun like a piglet on vacation. He walks beautifully on leash and does not get distracted by small critters. He just wants to be your best buddy. He’s got a playful side (especially with toys!) but knows how to relax too, he sleeps through the night!—and yes, he corncobs your fingers with affection.  Deebo is well-mannered around food, quiet, and alert without being reactive. He enjoys interacting with people but hasn’t shown separation anxiety, and he responds well to cues to settle when excited. He’s looking for a forever home where he can continue to shine as the calm, loving, goofy, and playful pup he is!

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:
I like other dogs! I have a cool, calm demeanor when I see other calm dogs around. Dogs with too much energy are a bit much for me as are alpha dogs.

HOW AM I WITH CATS:
No cats for me. I find them to be too interesting!

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:
Because I can become over-stimulated, it is best that I go to a home without children.

I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS:
Outside, leave it, gentle, and sometimes ‘no.’ Learning “lay down,” “leave it,” “sit,” and my name! I am also learning to walk better on my leash !

This dog is part of FOHA’s Diamond Dog Program, which means they receive extra training support and guidance to help them succeed in a home. To learn more about the Diamond Dog Program, click here and scroll down!

MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:
I do well in crate! I am housebroken!

THINGS I LIKE:
Car rides! Tug-of-war, my squeaky plushies, tennis balls I can chase, my people, my sleepy time noise machine! I love hot dogs and cheese, and the salmon oil I get for my sensitive skin is so yummy! I also like Gentle play, beef bones, bully sticks, rope toys, body massages, positive reinforcement with food, and a variety of tasty treats like salmon, canned pumpkin, cheddar, cottage cheese, boiled chicken, scrambled eggs, whipped cream, tukey, blueberries and pork jerky. He enjoys relaxing in the crate, going for rides, and soaking up attention during walks!

THINGS I DISLIKE:
It takes trust before you can touch my paws. I am getting better at bath time, but please be patient.
