In the shelter’s words

(DOB 11/13/2022) Mason is a big, loveable, wonderful boy! Be prepared for some love and affection when you meet Mason. This big boy has a knack for leaning right into you, seeking scratches and cuddles. Speaking of scratches, he loves that sweet spot on his back, near his tail scratced; it feels wonderful and he'll be sure to share his big smile!This adorable dog with a heart of gold is all about spending quality time with his favorite people. Whether it's going for long walks, snuggling on the couch, or playing fetch in the back yard, Mason is up for any adventure as long as he's with you! Mason would love a big yard to romp and run in but he's just as happy going for a walk with you!Mason is a social butterfly when it comes to interacting with other dogs. He loves making new friends and playing around, but he prefers smaller play groups to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Cats, on the other hand, don't quite understand Mason's playful nature, so it's best to give them a wide berth! He might not realize his own size, and he can be a bit clumsy at times. So, older kids who understand his exuberance are his best playmates!Don't be fooled by his silly antics – Mason is one smart cookie! He has mastered impressive tricks like sitting, spinning, and shaking, all for the promise of a tasty treat. Easy to crate, he'll only make a peep if he can't see you, so you can rest assured that your home will stay peaceful with Mason around, but when he does bark, it is loud. When it comes to toys, there's one that reigns supreme in Mason's heart: a squeaky rubber chicken. He'll toss it, bat it, and have a grand old time playing with it all by himself. If you want to join in on the fun, just throw it and watch Mason happily chase after it! A rubber Frisbee is also a favorite, though he doesn't always bring it back – hey, sharing can be overrated!With Mason by your side, you'll always feel safe and secure. He's a natural watch dog who will bark at any stranger. Always the protector, he would do better in a home that doesn't have a have a lot of company in and out, and will need proper introduction to household visitors. Mason embodies the true meaning of loyalty and will be by your side through thick and thin.So, if you're looking for a hilarious, loving, and slightly clumsy companion, look no further than Mason the dog. He's ready to fill your life with laughter, love, and endless joy. Get ready for the adventure of a lifetime with this lovable goofball!As part of Mason's $325 adoption fee, he is neutered, microchipped, up to date on age appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org. If you wish to adopt Mason, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website: www.pawsforlifenc.org.
