Hi there! I'm Spot-a-kiss. I'm full of joy and love. It's a safe bet that we will hit it off right from the start! I meet people in a friendly way because I'm a confident boy. I enjoy affection, being close to you, and making you proud. I'm one of those sorts of dogs that gets along well with all sorts of people. And if you like to give belly rubs I will happily flop over onto my back for them!

I "sit" very nicely for treats when asked and I know "off". I will get into my bed when it's time to go to sleep, or you're welcome to have me sleep with you if you like. I also take the treat gently out of your hand too. I even am learning to "shake". I am an absolute Star Student on the Agility Course here at Desert Haven and like to learn and would love to show my agility talents to you when you visit me!

I have some decent manners already so you'll have an easy time training me (hint, keep treats in your pocket). Recently, I took a trip with a volunteer and her husband to the Golf Course. I was calm in the car on the way. I think I liked that little Road Trip in the car! Then we got to the Golf Course and Wowie Kazowie -- there was green grass -- say what!? I pulled some on the leash because I was SO EXCITED by the green grass in the desert and getting to go on Spot's Day Out, but I was really good around the other golfers, didn't bark, enjoyed exploring my new surroundings, and took in all the new sniffs and sights. What a fun day!

I'm independent too, and like my downtime. I like chewing on a Kong filled with treats, toys, and curling up on the couch. I've been described by some as a couch-potato. While I think adventuring is fun, I'm also very content at home -- lounging, napping, and snuggling up with you. I'm one of those: Ready-when-you-are-but-enjoys-lounging-too type of doggos.

Most of all, I really want to find a family of my very own. I'm so excited about belonging with someone. Have you pictured me in your home with you? You have? Awesome! Let's meet soon and see if it's a Love Connection. Love, Spot-a-kiss
