DESCRIPTION
Meet Beowulf – The Big Goofball with a Heart of Gold
Beowulf is a 1-year-old Anatolian Shepherd mix who weighs 59 pounds and has quickly earned a fan club among shelter staff and volunteers. It’s easy to see why—this handsome young guy combines a gentle nature with a goofy, fun-loving personality that makes everyone smile.
When you first meet Beowulf, he may be a little shy for a moment as he takes everything in. Give him a minute, though, and his true personality shines through. Once he decides you're a friend, you're treated to the full Beowulf experience: happy tail wags, playful energy, and a silly side that keeps life entertaining.
As a young dog, Beowulf is still full of enthusiasm and enjoys getting out to explore, play, and spend time with his people. He has a cheerful, happy-go-lucky outlook on life and seems to approach each day as a new adventure.
Beowulf appears to be dog friendly, although he has not been formally tested with other dogs in our care. His easygoing demeanor suggests he may enjoy having canine friends.
If you're looking for a loyal companion who can make you laugh, brighten your day, and grow alongside your family, Beowulf might be your perfect match. All he needs is someone willing to give him a chance to show what a wonderful dog he is.
His minimum adoption fee is $300 plus a $15 fee, if 4 months or older, for rabies registration for McLean County residents.
He has been neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, heartworm checked, dewormed, and is on flea and heartworm preventatives.
