Pelican's Story

Hi there! My name is Pelican and I'm looking for my forever home! I already know sit and down, and I'm not picky about treats at all - I'll happily take whatever you've got! I can be a little jumpy when I get excited, but I've gotten much better. I'm easy to walk with minimal pulling, house trained, and I've done great the people I meet. I even ride well in the car! I won't sugarcoat it - I had a tough road for the first couple of years of my life. But despite all of that, I am a happy, friendly guy. I give sweet kisses, love picking out my own toys, and enjoy a good brushing session. I'm proof that love and a second chance can go a long way. I do best as the only pet in the home - no cats please, and I'd prefer to meet any resident dogs one on one before making things official.<br/>Could your home be my happy ending? Come visit me!
