Meet Junior, a small yet courageous pup who narrowly escaped the euthanasia list at the Downey shelter. Once timid and challenging for the staff to manage, he has blossomed in his foster home, slowly discovering that not every touch is a threat. As he continues to build trust with people, he benefits from clear boundaries to help him learn proper manners. Junior thrives in a firm household that can assert leadership, as he is an independent spirit who enjoys playing fetch and tug-of-war. He would be happiest as the sole dog in the home or with a calm canine companion. Vocal and expressive, Junior communicates his wants and needs with enthusiasm.
Junior would do best in a home with older kids or adults only. He is a fantastic car companion, eagerly joining his humans on daily rides to drop the kids off at school, and he entertains himself by catching flies that buzz around. Fully house-trained and crate-trained, he is currently working on his leash manners and socializing with new people. This charming little guy is in search of a patient and loving family to support him on his journey toward trust and companionship.
