DESCRIPTION
Meet Todd, a sweet and smart pup with a gentle soul and a youthful spark! He settled into his foster home with ease and quickly showed what a calm, easygoing companion he can be. Todd loves the simple joys in life-belly rubs, car rides, and spending time with his people-and while he's a bit older, he still has playful moments and enjoys his toys in short bursts before happily relaxing nearby.
Todd is house trained, does well roaming freely at night, and quietly moves about without disturbing anyone. Around other dogs, Todd tends to mirror their energy, and he may get excited when he spots small animals but moves on quickly. On walks, he can be reactive to strangers and will benefit from a patient adopter who can continue supporting him with positive guidance.
With his loving heart and appreciation for life's simple pleasures, Todd is ready to bring loyalty, companionship, and warmth to a home that will love him just as much as he loves in return.
To meet Alex Bowman, visit the Best Friends Lifesaving Center at 2005 S 1100 E in Salt Lake City. We're open daily from 11:00 am to 7:00 pm. You can also email us at utahadoptions@bestfriends.org. Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved. Come by and see if Todd is the perfect match for you!
