Meet 2410-0303 Dobby (Off Site Foster)

DOBBY - 1-5 years old, 75 pounds, friendly, dog social. Dobby arrived at VBACAC when his owner passed away. Terribly sad but fortunately Dobby seems ok, even stuck in a shelter cage.  He’s big, he’s intimidating behind cage bars but he is actually a friendly and fun boy! He’s happy and active.  This handsome hunk is also dog social as we’re seeing how great he is in our shelter playgroup. He has this funny way of standing still while other dogs sniff him and with one quick movement he jumps vertically and then trots away with the other dogs following him. He tries to engage other dogs to play as well. I’m guessing Dobby is house trained but if not, I bet he gets used to a new routine quickly. This striking black and white boy is waiting to meet you and your resident dog if you have one!  Come on out to VBACAC to meet him! He’s currently in a back kennel so if you don’t see him, please just ask!
