****ADOPTION PENDING****
Spuds is a 7yo, 65lb neutered male with a handsome white coat who lives in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He has a wonderful balance of playful energy and couch-potato charm. While he still gets the occasional case of the zoomies and loves a good play session, he'd much rather spend most of the day lounging comfortably. In fact, if you interrupt his relaxation to suggest a trip outside, he'll happily respond with his signature stubborn side-eye. Spuds adores people and is full of affection, making him a loving, happy companion who never meets a stranger.
With other dogs, Spuds is dog-selective and does best with playful, submissive companions who understand his rough-and-tumble bully play style. He won't go looking for trouble, but he won't back down if challenged. His favorite games involve spinning, barrel rolls, and enthusiastic chasing, regardless of the other dog's size. On walks, he either ignores passing dogs or politely waits in hopes of saying hello without barking or pulling. He walks reasonably well on leash, though he's easily distracted and has a habit of weaving or suddenly planting himself like an immovable boulder. His compatibility with cats is unknown, but his prey drive appears to be low.
Spuds is a wonderfully easy dog to live with. He's fully housebroken with perfect potty manners, crate trained (and actually chooses his crate as one of his favorite sleeping spots), and can comfortably stay home alone for up to 12 hours, spending most of that time sleeping. He isn't destructive, although he enjoys a good chew toy, and each night he happily rotates between his crate bed, couch, and floor bed in his own room. He's up to date on vaccinations and doesn't require a special diet. His only current medical concerns are a few non-urgent growths, an ulcer on his gums, and some general dental issues.
One of Spuds' greatest strengths is his charming personality. He's incredibly food motivated, especially when Mintie Chews are involved. A treat-filled toy can keep him entertained for hours. He has a hilarious habit of chugging water like a champion, sometimes needing a reminder to slow down, and absolutely loves rolling across the grass on sunny days. Nail trims are his least favorite activity, and somehow he transforms into what feels like a 300-pound dog whenever it's bath time. Between his legendary sassy side-eye, surprise cuddle attacks, and endless affection, Spuds is a lovable goofball who's sure to bring laughter and companionship to the right home.
We want nothing more than for Spuds to get a home of his own and be absolutely spoiled. Can you open your home and your heart to this adorable gentleman? If so, please apply here:
