STAN

APPROXIMATE AGE: 2-3 years

CURRENT STATUS: Available for adoption/ Foster to adopt

Stan is a 2–3 year old rottie/bully mix, about 45 lbs, and one of the gentlest, most tender dogs you’ll ever meet. He spent most of his life in a shelter, so the world is still very new and overwhelming for him, but he is trying every day, and he’s slowly coming out of his shell.

Stan is quiet, calm, and has the personality of a cat. He loves lounging on the couch, doing little “loops” in a fenced yard, and getting gentle pets on his terms. He doesn’t bark, doesn’t jump, and is perfectly content being a low energy homebody.

He is still learning to feel safe on a leash and may have fear-based accidents when overwhelmed, so he needs a patient adopter who understands that healing takes time. A fenced yard, a calm home, and no small kids are best. He may enjoy the company of another dog but would also be more than happy being the centre of attention on his own. He has not been cat tested.

Stan is house trained, comfortable in his crate, loves car rides, lick mats, and snuggling with his ducky toy. He is a soulful dog. A dog who has survived more than he should have. A dog who is learning what love feels like. A dog who will give back tenfold to the person who sees him, understands him, and chooses him. He just needs someone willing to go at his pace.

If you’re looking for a gentle companion to love, support, and help blossom, Stan has so much love to give back.
