Hello! My name is Springfield. I am a cute little Beagle, around 8 years old. I'm a little love bug and I enjoy a good belly rub. I'd make a great companion for a family with children, dogs, and cats. I am good with kids of all ages, and I love to sit and be petted by them. I may need some supervision with younger ones as I like to use my paw to ask for love. A home with a fenced-in yard where I can chill and wonder would be ideal. I'm getting used to going on car rides and do well walking on a leash. So, going places together would be fun! I may need some breaks as I'm still building my muscle strength.

My foster mom has been helping me gain some much-needed weight since taking me in. I am weighing in just around 20 lbs and shouldn't get much heavier than that. I love when it's meal time but will share my food with my foster family kitties. I do get cold easily, so a jacket or sweater may be nice in the colder months.

I am currently working really hard at potty training. I know I am supposed to go potty outside, and will go to the door or notify my foster parents to let me out. I am not good in a crate but do well sleeping on a comfy bed. I don't make a lot of noise unless I see something my foster parents need to know about, like the neighbor.

I love to run and it's pretty silly to see. I get the zoomies regularly and race around the house or yard. I don't really play with toys and prefer to get all the chin scratches and belly rubs. I am working on learning how to "sit" and "down". When my foster mom works at home, I love to curl up near her and take a nap. Otherwise, I find a quiet, soft place to rest. I enjoy being outside to sun myself, so a nice sunny spot would be amazing.

I am so excited to find my forever family. I have so much love to give! If you think you have my perfect home, my foster mom would love to talk with you. Thank you!
