Snowy

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 SPECIAL ADOPTER BENEFIT: A generous sponsor donated $475 in positive reinforcement training for Snowy. PLEASE VISIT THIS WEBSITE TO FIND THE ADOPTION QUESTIONNAIRE: http://www.homewardtrails.org/adopt-a-pet/adoption-forms/ Meet Snowy – Sweet, Smart & Snuggly Snowy is a gentle, affectionate boy who loves people—especially kids! He's house- and crate-trained, quiet, and playful at home. A total cuddlebug, Snowy enjoys belly rubs, enrichment games, and bringing you his leash or toys when he’s ready for fun. You could probably train him to bring you your slippers! He’s very food motivated and eager to learn, and he’s making great progress with leash training. Snowy does need continued help when leash walking especially when seeing other dogs and sudden motion, like bikes, but he’s improving steadily with treats, structure, and love. He would thrive in a backyard where he can run and play. For now, Snowy does best as the only pet in a calm home with someone experienced or willing to learn and train him. He’s great in the car, loves exploring, and makes his fosters laugh every day. Snowy is a sweet soul ready for a fresh start. Ready to meet your new best friend? Snowy is waiting!
