This handsome young Doberteen came to us from a family where his human had to move out of state to take care of his mother. Caring for a teenage dog and an aging human, in combination with a move, is more than anyone ought to have to try to manage. So he has come to us for a brief time as he awaits a new loving, nurturing, forever home. He‘s a handful of young exuberance - really strong, but will calm down to a big, loving mush if you pet him and make over him.
His former mom shares the following bits about him:
“He fetches his favorite toy every single time, but he wants you take it from him, then kick or throw it again. When he sees blue medical gloves, he thinks that it is time to play fetch. He loves to play tag with the broom.... gently tap his toe as if you had a hockey stick, and he will run top speed, for fun. Just say ‘Yah, yah’ very softly. When you want him to come inside, ask him nicely, ‘You coming in?’ He is very friendly and affectionate. He loves hugs and rubs. He will sit and stay on command. He’s still very excited on leash and tends to cross in front a lot. He’s extremely active and LOVES to run and chase his glow-in-the-dark ball.”He’s been nothing but a champ since arriving at Elijah’s House. Here are some observations from our volunteers:
“Dalmore is a stunner with beautiful eyes and coat. His personality matches his good looks. He has a good energy level, and he will match whatever vibe you put out there. He’s just an awesome red Dobe where you immediately tell yourself, ‘Man, I like this guy!’"
“Boy, what a bundle of energy and love on four legs! Dalmore loves people and likes to be as close as possible. He‘s one of those dogs who you can‘t help but fall in love with, he‘s just such a happy guy. His personality is truly infectious!”
This fellow is nothing short of fantastic. Make an appointment to meet him once your application is approved, and come prepared to take him home with you once you do!
