In the shelter’s words

Meet Deacon, he is a mixed breed dog with a great personality… uh, dog-anality. Deacon is a neutered male coming in at about 45 lbs of pure love. He's just a chill guy with a splash of zoomies! Deacon's resume is spectacular. He has the work experience, the passion, and the love. I mean, how can you turn down a boy this good? - House trained - Crate trained - Leash trained - Has worked with multiple trainers - A true lover boy: The perfect partner and good with kids - A squeaky toy enthusiast: Deacon takes pride in his squeaky toys. No squeak too big, no squeak to small. Squeaky toys, he loves them all! The training he received comes with lifetime training touch-ups (adoption location dependent). Once he has settled in, the trainer will provide you with training sessions to help acclimate him to his new home. They also provide group training sessions most Saturdays at local parks. Pretty sweet deal, right?! Deacon was bounced around a bit so he’s learned to love and trust again. Due to that, he can be slow to warm up, but once you are his person, he desires nothing more than to be by your side as your furry companion. Deacon is just a boy navigating this real world, overcoming everyday challenges. - Deacon will thrive in an only dog household - Loves cats: He enjoys a little Tom & Jerry like playtime - A fenced yard will allow Deacon to truly unleash his Olympic gold medal jumps - Needs someone who is patient, allowing him slow introductions with new people, places, and things If you think Deacon would make a good addition to your family, fill out an application at lastdaydogs.com
