Sundance's Story
Meet Sundance!<br/><br/><br/><br/>Sundance is a German Shepherd/Husky/Lab mix that is around 79 pounds at full growth and was born 4/4/2023. He was originally brought to us as an owner surrender after his family needed help looking to find forever homes, not only for him, but for many of his siblings too.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Since being at the shelter, he has learned lots of new tricks that he uses every day such as basic commands like "sit", "shake", "down", and "off". He knows when it is time to go potty and play outside, as well as how to walk on leash, but he may still pull when he is excited to go on walks or to play outside. Although Sundance has learned a lot since his arrival, he would love to have a home that is patient and willing to show him new things at his pace, and one that will have time to help him express his energy!<br/><br/><br/><br/>Sundance has started to feel more confortable with new people and learning to make fast friends. He still need slow introductions, but would love to have a meet with any resident family members including children or dogs in the home, as they did not grow up around children or other dogs outside of his pack. Older children may be a little easier for him to trust, as younger children can still be pretty scary with their loud noises and fast movements. Just be prepared that when greeting the people he is comfortable with, he may become excited and jump up to say "hi" which could potentially knock over children. Sundance has met with other dogs and done well, and while we do think another dog in the home would help him build confidence, it is not required. As for furry felines, he would need to be tested to see his reactions.<br/><br/><br/><br/>Since he has experience of being outside but has learned the perks of staying inside throughout the day and overnight, he would be able to be adopted as an inside/outside dog. We will require that he has access to a climate-controlled shelter where he can sleep at night, that he has access to fresh food and fresh water every day, and that he has plenty of space to exercise safely within a fenced in area. <br/><br/><br/><br/>If you would be interested in more information about Sundance or would like to meet with him, please come on in and ask to meet him dueing open hours, or fill out an adoption application on our website. <br/><br/><br/><br/>Some information may change over time as we get to know him better.
