Squid

My story

We rescued squid from a shelter here in slc. He was abandoned out in a canyon before the shelter. He is the sweetest dog I have ever met. He loves to cuddle in bed and is always down for a lazy day but he does love exploring. Squid has been my adventure buddy for the past 6 months. He has summited mountains, forded rivers and he is great on bike rides. He even knows his left and right! Squid is around 3 and a half but I get asked all the time if he’s a puppy. He’s a bit of a weirdo, he’s not super interested in typical dog things like fetch or chew toys but he loves to explore and run around. His one flaw is his separation anxiety. While he has shown some improvement, he is quite the escape artist when it comes to crates and doesn’t do great after a couple hours of being alone. We’ve been working on this by locking him in the room and rewarding him with a treat after 5, 10, 30 mins once he settles. We are looking for someone who can give him the patience and attention he deserves.
