sandry

Sandry came to us after being found alone at a complex dog park, and now he's looking for a steady, caring home to call his own. This handsome 73-pound "beefcake" has a strong, playful spirit and plenty of energy to share.Sandry gets excited when it's time to leash up-he just can't wait to get going-but once he's outside, he settles into a nice walk and passes barking dogs with no trouble at all. He pulls a little at first out of eagerness, but nothing unmanageable.He is a smart pup who already knows sit, down, paw/shake, and he can even catch treats mid-air! He takes treats gently and loves working for his rewards. A big fan of hard chew toys, peanut butter Kongs, and long walks, Sandry is an easygoing and playful companion who's ready for his next adventure.In his first doggie playgroup, Sandry had a great time playing with another female dog-showing off his playful side, though he can be a bit focused on mounting during interactions. With some guidance and a calm, understanding family, Sandry can learn how to express his affection in ways that work best for everyone.He's ready to find someone patient who will help him grow and enjoy all the love and fun he has to offer. If you're looking for a big, lovable companion who's full of heart and muscle, Sandry might be the perfect fit.Although he is heartworm positive, it is treatable and not contagious. Friends of Wake County Animal Center has provided a $700 sponsorship to help cover the cost of treatment.If you're interested in learning more about him, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Sandry 261940".He is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be neutered prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times.
