My story

Hi!  I’m Mason!  I’m in a foster home; read below to learn more about me! I’m in a foster home but still looking for my forever home!  I’ve settled in nicely and I’m told that I’m easy & pretty low maintenance in my foster home! Some other great news about me: -I’m potty trained!  -And crate trained.  I don’t stay in a crate now because I can be trusted when I’m left alone! -I don’t chew things that I’m not supposed to. -I’m good in the car & love to go for rides. -I love to explore and sniff – lots of sniffing! How am I with other dogs?  - When I was at the shelter, staff said I was friendly and social and that I loved to be with other friendly, social dogs. I was in playgroup with other dogs, but after a  while, the shelter stress just got to me and playgroup wasn’t fun for me anymore. - I don’t hang out with other dogs now; the other dog in my foster home isn’t really that friendly so we stay separated.  Every so often I try to engage with her but she’s just not a fan. Some other facts about me: - I’m about 55 lbs. - I was found as a stray and no one came to claim me so I stayed at the shelter for many months  - this was very scary for me. My foster families say: - I’m pretty quiet, friendly, and affectionate.  I love attention, hanging out with my people, & getting some pets from them!  - I’m one of the sweetest fosters ever!  Every morning, I greet my fosters with a wiggly, happy body and a toy in my mouth – yes, every single day! Some final thoughts: - I’m learning to trust humans; they’re really not so scary.  It still takes time for me to get to know you, but once I feel safe & comfy with you,  we’re friends for life! -But I still would do better in an adult home or home with older kids. I’m still a scaredy at times;  I’m learning to be brave and to walk in my neighborhood without being too scared. Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 13, 2025, 1:03 pm
