Swing's Story

This little guy may be small, but he has a big personality waiting to shine! He can be very nervous when meeting new people, so he'll need a little extra patience, understanding, and time to warm up. Once he feels safe and comfortable, his energetic, playful side comes out, and he's ready to have some fun! <br/><br/> A little heads-up: He can be quite vocal and loves to speak his mind, so be prepared for some barking! <br/><br/> He has previously lived with both dogs and cats, so he has experience sharing his home with other furry friends.<br/><br/> His ideal home: This little guy is looking for an adult-only home with no children. He needs someone who will respect his boundaries, give him time to settle in, and let him build trust at his own pace. <br/><br/> If you have a little patience, a lot of love, and room in your heart for a small pup with a big personality, this sweet boy could be the companion you've been looking for! <br/><br/>Ready to Adopt?<br/><br/>You have two options:<br/>#1- VISIT IN PERSON<br/>Come during our open adoption hours: Tuesday - Saturday,12:30 - 3:00pm. You'll be able to meet available dogs in the shelter.<br/>(Dogs in foster care are available to meet by appointment.)<br/><br/>#2- ADOPT REMOTELY OR PLACE A 24-HOUR HOLD** <br/>If you're ready to adopt without meeting the dog first, or you'd like to place a non-refundable $25 hold to reserve a dog for 24 hours, just call or email us: (413) 781-4000 x 1 springfield@dakinhumane.org.
