🐾 Meet Aggie, he’s going to steal your heart! 🐾
Are you looking for a loyal companion who’s as active as they come, loves attention, and is eager to find their forever home? Look no further than Aggie, the delightful 6-year-old pup with a story that’s as heartwarming as his personality. (The vet thinks he’s between 6-8 years old.)
Aggie’s journey began when he was found as a stray in MA, navigating life all on his own. Despite the challenges he’s faced, he’s a resilient and spirited canine with a heart full of affection and playfulness.
At 17 pounds, Aggie has a thin, long frame, and fits perfectly in your lap, which is where he’d love to be when he’s not exploring. His fur is ohh so soft, and will need regular trims to keep him looking and feeling his best. He is not a shedder, but is not too fond of being “cleaned up” when food and such get into his coat.
Aggie is a dog who thrives on activity and human interaction. He craves attention and is always up for an adventure. Whether it’s a game of fetch in the park or a leisurely stroll by your side, he’s your ideal partner in fun. His enthusiasm is infectious, and you’ll quickly find that he brings a smile to your face every day.
Like all dogs, Aggie is a work in progress. He’s diligently working on his potty and obedience skills We are waiting for him to be neutered to really start working on housetraining, so right now he uses a belly band.
With his new human’s consistent help, he’ll continue to improve. He’s looking for a patient and loving owner who’s willing to put in the time and effort to help him adjust to his new home and build his confidence.
Though he’s not kid tested yet, his temperament would be a match for a household with older kids. He will go in his crate but loves to see his new humans when he’s not asleep. Better yet he’d love to cuddle next to you and keep you warm in bed.
Aggie also appreciates companionship and would thrive in a household where someone is active or athletic, and where there’s a commitment to helping him feel secure and confident when he has to be left alone. He does exhibit some signs of anxiety (barking) when left alone, but we are hopeful that will improve.
Aggie has been stellar in such a short time to learn basic behaviors such as sit, touch/here, and walking nicely on a leash. He’s really food and praise motivated so he’s a quick learner! He’s got the potential to learn all kinds of things including fun tricks!
Most recently Aggie has been on anti-seizure medication while we figure out his symptoms. Also, he has a slight heart murmur which will need to monitored at his exams.
If you’re ready to open your heart and home to a furry friend who’s as eager to love as he is to be loved, Aggie might just be the perfect match for you.
Give this sweet pup a chance, and you’ll discover a bond that will warm your heart for years to come. Don’t let this special opportunity slip through your fingers.
Adopt this pup and embark on a journey of love, laughter, and endless tail-wagging adventures together
