Sporty's Story

Adoptable in: MA, RI, NH, CT, and VT<br/><br/>Good with dogs: Yes<br/>Good with cats: Yes<br/>Good with kids: Yes<br/>Crate trained: Mostly<br/>House Trained: Yes<br/><br/>Meet Sporty! Don't let the name fool you—while he's always up for an adventure, Sporty is a mid-energy boy who's just as happy to kick back and enjoy a quiet evening at your side. This handsome pup is looking for a loving home where he can come out of his shell and be the most loyal companion you could ever dream of.<br/><br/>Sporty had a tough start to life and can be a little shy when meeting new people as a result. He may hang back at first and observe, but give him a few minutes to warm up and his sweet, affectionate personality will shine through. Sporty has been a rockstar with the kids he's met, patiently welcoming their hugs and kisses! This gentle giant is even great with cats—he completely ignores them. Sporty LOVES other dogs, reading their cues well and taking comfort from their company. He would be thrilled to have a canine sibling in his new home to look up to as he gains confidence.<br/><br/>Sporty is a smart boy and a quick learner. He is house trained (though like any dog he may need patience as he adapts to new routines). Sporty has been working hard on his crate training and is making great progress. He may whine for a few minutes after the door closes, but he sleeps in his crate overnight and will even choose to go in and hang out by himself sometimes. While Sporty doesn't demand a ton of exercise, his favorite thing is going on long walks or runs with his trusted people. He would make an amazing walking or hiking buddy, with his quiet endurance and calm presence.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a big, loyal, low-drama companion who will grow more devoted with every passing day, Sporty just might be your guy. What are you waiting for? Apply to meet him today!<br/><br/>Please Note: All dogs are posted on our website until they are officially adopted. This dog may have other interested adopters in line. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at www.lasthopek9.org.
