Papillon Dogs Available for Adoption

Hi! My name is Shadow and I am looking for a forever home. I was surrendered to a small rescue after my owner's job changed and he realized I was spending way too much time by myself or in boarding. A volunteer with that rescue contacted BCAA to see if they could help and they said yes! My foster mom was told I am a papillon mix and the vet thinks I'm about 4 years old. I'm around 15lbs and as a young adult I shouldn't get any bigger. While I was a little confused when I first came into foster, I realized pretty quick that I was safe and am looking forward to finding my own home. I have gotten along with all of the other small dogs I have met and haven't paid much attention at all to those things called cats. I have done really well in my crate without any accidents, barking or tearing up of any bedding although I would really prefer to be out with you. I enjoy my food and take treats gently. I am good on leash and enjoy going for walks as it means we get to go on an adventure together. If you would like to meet me, please fill out an application which can be found at www.bcaaofnj.org.
