Notes: Deke #592807 is a sweet, food-loving pup looking for the perfect home. he is a relaxed and easygoing dog — at least when food’s not involved! He absolutely loves affection, especially scratches and brushing. He is super food-motivated, which makes him a quick learner, but it also means he can get pretty excited around mealtime.
His ideal home: No small children, please – I get a little too enthusiastic when food is around. Dog-friendly with slow, proper introductions. He has been tested with both a male Hound and a female Husky mix. He may do best with submissive or low-energy dogs. A patient, loving home that understands he needs slow introductions and a little time to settle in. Adoption fee $25.00Adoption fee $25.00. We accept cash, check, credit and debit cards.
