Bolt is a 2-year-old neutered pup who found himself in need of a new home after his military owner was deployed with no other options for his care. Despite this sudden transition, Bolt remains a friendly, affectionate, and well-mannered dog who is eager to find a loving family where he can settle in and thrive.
💙 Why You’ll Love Bolt
✅ Playful & Gentle – Bolt loves to play and enjoys a good game of fetch, especially with kids. He’s energetic but plays with soft paws—never rough or overly excitable. ✅ Friendly & Social – He welcomes visitors with a wagging tail and is excited to meet new people. ✅ Great with Kids – Previously lived with children (ages 10-13) and interacted gently, approaching them with licks and playful engagement. ✅ Dog-Friendly – Shows interest in other dogs in a calm and playful manner. His relaxed body language and play bows indicate he’s eager to make dog friends. ✅ Crate Trained & Manageable on Leash – Comfortable in his crate and only pulls slightly on the leash—making walks enjoyable with a little guidance. ✅ Well-Behaved in the Home – His previous owners had no behavioral concerns, and he has displayed no major issues in the shelter. ✅ Adaptable & Loving – While he was initially nervous in the shelter, once he has time to adjust he’s proved to be a confident, affectionate, and social pup.
🏡 Bolt’s Ideal Home
Bolt would do best in a loving, active home where he can be a part of the family. He would thrive in a household with kids to play with or other friendly dogs to socialize with. Given his initial nervousness in new environments, his perfect adopter will be patient, allowing him time to adjust and feel secure.
He would love a yard to run and play in, but more importantly, he just wants a family that will include him in their daily life, whether that’s playing outside, going for walks, or just snuggling on the couch.
