My story

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please fill out our dog adoption questionnaire and e-mail any questions to: joshuahtrescue@gmail.com PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ ABOUT THIS ANIMAL: Can you guess how I got the name Goofy? Can you? It's because I’m goofy! Silly people tried calling me Macaron, even Mac, but those names are too serious for a goofy boy like me! I love to play with people and other dogs. My foster home has a lot of other dogs and puppies, and I'm friends with all of them. We love playing with toys and running on our big open field. Do you like to run too? Or even like to walk? Because I am a great running or walking buddy. I love to be at your side! I'm super loyal like that. Do you like getting kisses? Because "give me kiss" is one of my favorite tricks! I learned it really fast too. I also know sit, lay down, shake either paw, jump-up and dance, go to bed and to wait command for my food (but I don’t like waiting for food so much). And I'm only getting started, I can learn a lot more tricks with you. Some things scare me though, and I get nervous around new people. It can take me a little time and a few slow introductions to get over my fear, and once I do I am the biggest, most goofy cuddle bug! Do you want to help me get over my fears and go on lots of walks together? Email my friend Joshua at JoshuaHTRescue@gmail.com to find out more about me and how you can make me part of your family. LOCATION: Foster ADOPTION COORDINATOR: Joshua ADOPTION FEE: INCLUDES spay/neuter and microchip. **Ask me about our many adoption benefits that include free exams, pet insurance, training and other discounts! ESTIMATE WEIGHT FULL GROWN: 70 lbs KNOWN WITH DOGS: Friendly with other dogs, good greetings on walks and with scheduled doggy play dates. His first greeting with a new dog friend he can be a little nervous, but warms up well with a friendly dog. KNOWN WITH CATS: Goofy is very cat-friendly!! His previous home, he lived with three cats. KNOWN WITH KIDS: Goofy has not had issues with kids but has not lived with them before KNOWN COMMANDS: Goofy reportedly knows sit, come, paw, and down. He is also working on a Place cue. This may shift in a new home and command reinforcement may be needed! KNOWN HOUSEBREAKING &/OR CRATING: Goofy is very comfortable using pee pads and will go outside if it is a quite space. He is crate trained. KNOWN LIKES: Goofy LOVES to run outside! KNOWN DISLIKES: Goofy does not like swimming/water but is OK getting a reluctant bath. He does not like being left alone for too too long, but what dog does!! He does well in a crate for a responsible amount of time. HT ADOPTION INCLUSIONS: Spay/Neuter First 3 distemper series vaccines & de-wormings Microchip - lifetime with no registration fees Current on heartworm preventative Current on flea/tick preventative EXCLUSIVE ADOPTER BENEFITS: Free first exam with: Caring Hands Animal Hospital, Palisades Veterinary Clinic, Jermantown Animal Hospital and Clarendon Animal Care and all VCA Animal Hospitals (VCA offers $250 coverage - details provided) Free online workshop with a professional dog trainer at Fur-Get Me Not within the first 30 days of adopting (in DC/Arlington/Alexandria only) A portion of EVERY ADOOPTION fee supports spay/neuter for animals in under-resourced communities BE A FOSTER: Save a life: http://www.homewardtrails.org/foster-a-pet/dog-and-cat-foster-program.
