Meet Splasher, your future snuggle bug! Just look at that face--floppy hound ears, soft eyes, and a sweet, gentle spirit that makes him pretty hard to resist.
Splasher and his sister, Dasher, (also up for adoption) were part of a litter sadly dumped in the woods, and heartbreakingly, they were the only two who survived. Now safe in foster care, Splasher is showing everyone just what a lovable little guy he is. He may be slightly smaller than his sister, but he has plenty of personality!
Splasher does wonderfully with other dogs and considers napping, cuddling, and cozying up with his foster siblings some of his greatest talents. He has also been fostered with cats and did well with them. He should do well with children, although like many puppies, he is still working on some playful puppy mouthing and is already making good progress.
He is crate trained, keeps his crate clean, and sleeps like an absolute angel all night. His housetraining is also coming along nicely, and he did well on a short car ride with his foster. Splasher is a funny little character who sometimes likes to "talk," showing off that adorable hound-like personality.
Sweet, snuggly, and full of charm, Splasher is ready to leave his difficult beginning behind and find a loving family of his very own.
If you're looking for a snuggly, quiet-sleeping puppy who's ready to grow into your best friend, Splasher is your boy! Apply to bring Splasher home today!
