Hi! My name is Nash, and LDDR is helping me to become the BEST boy that I can be.

I love cuddles, and absolutely believe that I should be a lap dog. I love to cuddle in bed, on the couch, when you nap - really, it’s one of my favorite things to do! I like to lay my head on top of yours and get as close as possible. I am part dog, part weighted blanket!

I also love to play with my doggy friends! I love having playdates with other energetic dogs. My BFF is a dominant female German shepherd, and I let her take the lead. I am not submissive, but calm and collected when interacting with other dogs. I even live with a Chihuahua, a very mean one, who sometimes tries to bite or be mean to me - and I don’t even growl back! I am nice to other dogs through the fence and rarely bark. Overall, I’d love to live with another playful doggy friend, and can live with small doggies with slow introductions. I lived with cats when I was younger and would sometimes chase them, but I’ve been neutered and *matured* since then.

I spent over a year in a shelter-like boarding facility, which was not good for my mental health. I am now in a foster home, have been neutered, and am taking some SSRI’s to help with all of these changes. Medication can be used to help dogs during difficult transitions or in training, but may be used lifelong depending on the vet’s opinion. I have reduced my dosage since moving in with my foster mom and my doggy friends.

I hope you’d be willing to meet me and learn more! You can come for a playdate and see how good of a boy I am in person! As I was a return to LDDR, the rescue will even pay for me to go do training sessions with my new adopted, as they want me to find my FUREVER home. They really love me a lot.
