Meet Lambert

ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:
Hi, I’m Lambert — a big mutt with an even bigger heart! If you believe that size equals love, then I’m your guy. I may look like a gentle giant (because I am), but I also have a playful side and a lot of curiosity about the world around me. Whether it’s going for a walk or learning something new, I’ll be right by your side, ready for adventure — especially if treats are involved!

I’m a calm, affectionate boy who enjoys exploring and staying close to my people. I’m also a bit of a neat freak — I take pride in keeping my space clean and am fully housebroken. I can be startled if woken suddenly, so I appreciate gentle handling and quiet routines. Because of my size and strength, I’d do best in a home without small children, ideally with an experienced adopter who understands big, loving dogs like me.

I’m so excited to meet my potential new family! To make sure we have the best first impression, I’d feel most comfortable meeting new people with one of my friends(a FOHA staff or volunteer) by my side. The best way to set up a successful meet-and-greet is by submitting an application first. Thanks for considering me!

HOW AM I WITH DOGS:
I’ve done well with other dogs at FOHA who share my calm demeanor and would likely enjoy the company of a like-minded canine friend.

HOW AM I WITH CATS:
A little too overly interested in cats. I would probably do best in a home without cats.

HOW AM I WITH KIDS:
Best suited for an adult-only home or one with older, dog-savvy teens due to my size, strength, and startle reflex when sleeping.

I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS:
I know sit and I’m eager to learn more, especially when treats are involved!

MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:
I’m fully housebroken and take pride in keeping my area clean. With a consistent routine and calm environment, I’ll thrive in your home.

THINGS I LIKE:
Walks, treats, gentle affection, clean spaces, calm environments, staying close to my people, and learning new things.

THINGS I DISLIKE:
Being startled while I sleep, loud or chaotic settings, and sudden movements. I do best with a peaceful home and confident guidance.
