Meet Falafel

Location: NJ   Meet the most bestest boy around  Falafel ! He is about 2-3 years old and is ready for his forever home. He is up to date on his vaccines, is neutered and gets his monthly heartworm and flea and tick medications.    Falafel  is the type of dog that is down to do anything. He enjoys being with his people and if that means you are going on a  10-mile  hike, he is READY! If that means you had a long day at work and he gets a short 1 hour walk then lounging on the couch for the rest of the night he is down for that too. He is a medium energy guy that just enjoys spending time with his people.  Falafel  also enjoys getting out and exploring the town. He enjoys going to new places and meeting new people. He has never met a stranger but isn’t  the  type of dog that gets in people faces. He waits for people to come to him.  Falafel  is also good with other dogs. He is more of a  peaceful  co- exister  and will play for a few minutes but isn’t a rough and tumble type of dog. He enjoys running in the backyard and sniffing around. He is crate-trained and potty trained. At night he enjoys sleeping in bed with his foster family and is an excellent cuddlier. When he hears the alarm goes  off,  he helps to wake his foster mom up by giving her lots of kisses to start the day. I mean,  isn’t that  s  a great way  to wake up every morning. Falafel has not meet children but is a typical cattle dog and can get mouthy when excited so, for this reason children in the home need to be 12 years or older.  Falafel lives with dog savvy cats currently but does chase them.  A physically fenced in yard that is secure is also required. Falafel enjoys digging in the yard so he needs a family that will be out with him all the time and maybe even someone who will put his digging skills to good use! He is a gardener in the making. Falafel is a fun-loving boy to deserves the absolute best family. He is an easy-going dog that is literally perfect!   Please contact [email protected].
