Hey, I'm Atlas! I became an Underdog after being found confined and starving. I was emaciated but now I am at a healthy weight, and my sweet and silly personality has come shining through! I'm ready to find my furever home, could that be with you?

I can be shy with new people, but after I warm up to you, you will see just how playful and happy I am! I love to play with my humans by jumping around and making funny little excited noises, when I'm really happy I give little kisses. Having another dog around helps me be confident, plus I love to wrestle and play with other dogs, so a home with another dog is really important to me! I'm a cuddly girl, and will cuddle with my humans and other dogs. I'm also really great with cats! I know that some of them don't like too much attention, so I try not to be intimidating. Once they are used to me, I love to cuddle with and groom them! Since I'm a bit of a nervous girl, I'd prefer a home without young children.

I'm totally house trained and am great in the kennel. Toss a treat in there and I go right in and lay down without a peep, whether it's when you're heading out to work or for bedtime. Since I know what it's like to starve, I sometimes guard my food, but only in certain situations. I'm slowly learning that I won't go hungry again! I am great on walks and don't pull at all, and I'm also great off leash! I've been called a little 'velcro dog' as I like to stick close to my humans.

If you're looking for a new best friend to brighten your days with silly antics, look no further! Apply to meet me today.
