My story

Dankster (Danky, Baby Dank, Danky Doodle) originally adopted from Rocket Dog Rescue in San Francisco, CA and brought to Oregon when he was about a year old is 6.5 yrs old, sweet, smart, smiley, loving, playful, goofy, medium energy, and thinks he’s a lap dog. Gives sweet kisses and nose boops. Very food motivated; loves to show off all the commands he knows. Mix of independent and a barnacle. He has a high prey drive, so no other types of animals, nor dogs with bully/alpha personalities. He’s a hit/miss on kids of all ages, so best to not be in a home with kids (also a less stressful transition). Reactive on leash and at barriers (fence, house, car); he has been improving. Walks well on leash when not triggered. About 10 lbs overweight (under-exercised, not overfed) and would benefit from regular walks (with someone who has the strength for his pulling or lunging when triggered); it’s challenging to get him to engage in exercise thru play long enough to make a difference.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Dankster, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
