My story

Echo | Male| 2 years | 42 lb| Snuggle bug | Dog-friendly | Condo-friendly Echo has the gorgeous good looks of a big dog but he's mini! Best of all worlds! He's very gentle, sweet, and well-behaved. Echo is settling in beautifully at his foster home where he is starting to learn about playing with toys (he's pro) and cuddling with dogs and humans (very pro, especially at bed time). This boy is a sweet puddle of gentleness and calm. His foster describes him as a bit of an "old soul" despite his youth: he is very chill and enjoys his walks, but he also likes lots of naps. He loves to watch the goings on inside and outside his home, and he's very respectful, curious and observant. He thinks squirrels are the coolest things ever, but he won't bark, he just likes to quietly watch. Echo walks beautifully on leash, who matches your pace and greets other dogs and people calmly. He wags his tail in greeting and is fine to wait beside you while you have a conversation. He doesn't have any resource guarding, destructive behaviour, or separation anxiety. He's pretty perfect and he's eager to please his people. His favourite treat is ice cream! He recently needed a bath and was a perfect angel for it. Echo would be fine in all different kinds of homes and families since he's so calm and adaptable. He'd be good as a solo dog or a second dog, in a condo or a house with a fenced yard. He hasn't lived with cats but passed a cat test with flying colours. This boy is a gem! If you'd like to bring him home and help him learn even more about the comforts and pleasures of being home at last, then please apply here: https://form.jotform.com/pawsacrossthewater/adoption-application

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Echo, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
