This sweet and quirky scruff goes by the name LANCE <3 Looking for a calm and loving family to call his own, this 1-year-old male is truly a gentle soul who adores belly rubs and ear scratches. Oh, and ALL the high-fives! Respectful of boundaries and space, LANCE is doing well living with his foster’s dog, though shows he’s indifferent to them overall.

A bit timid around loud noises and hardwood floors, who can blame him since they are, well, loud and, well, slippery! He’s been busy working on building his confidence and does well with guidance. Here’s the thing about LANCE. He’s a bit of a food enthusiast, and you could say we’re impressed. Of course, it comes with his quirky style; he needs a little coaxing to eat—he’ll inspect his food, take a bite, and then spit it out before finally devouring it all. Yum. It’s just his way of making sure the food’s up to snuff!

LANCE is still figuring out walks. Are they a little intimidating for him right now? Yeah a little. But, with some patience and encouragement, he’s making great progress. Lately, he’s been walking with an SOS alumni and learning quickly! A calm, patient home will be ideal for this scruff, where he can continue to grow and be the best version of himself. Structure that’s built into his schedule is also great, as it helps him understand what’s expected of him.

If you’re looking for a loving companion who just needs a little time to trust, LANCE could be your perfect match. Apply to adopt! FYI, his soulful gaze into your eyes will melt your heart!
