Forest's Story

Available <br/><br/>Forest is smaller and about 45 pounds, he looks to be a Shepherd/Queensland mix, around 5 years old... and a dog that clearly spent too much of his life tied out. We've learned quickly--Forest can scale a 6-foot fence. Not to run away... but to get to you. He doesn't flee--he seeks people.<br/><br/>That tells you everything you need to know about his heart.<br/><br/>Forest is a calm, gentle soul who just needs someone with a soft hand and a little patience. He's not looking for chaos or a busy life--he's looking for his person. A homebody. A quiet place. A spot next to you where he finally feels safe.<br/><br/>If you've been looking for a loyal companion who just wants to be near you...<br/>Forest is your guy.
