If you're looking for a loyal best friend with a goofy personality and a heart full of love, Demetro may be your perfect match.

Affectionately known as Demi, this handsome boy is looking for a foster home through absolutely no fault of his own.

Demi is a sweet, silly cuddle bug who forms deep bonds with his people. Once you're part of his circle, you'll have a devoted companion who loves nothing more than spending time with his family. His favorite things in the world include tennis balls, tug-of-war, splashing in pools, and playtime with canine friends. In fact, while boarding, he's become a star participant in dog playgroups and never turns down a chance to chase a ball.

Because Demi can be reserved around new people and dogs, patience and thoughtful introductions are important. He may bark or appear unsure when meeting strangers while on leash or through a fence, and a muzzle is used during introductions as an extra precaution. However, with time, consistency, and a few games of fetch, his playful personality quickly shines through.

Demi has made tremendous progress in training and is eager to learn. Despite arriving at his current home with limited manners, he has proven to be highly trainable and eager to please.

Demi's Highlights:

  • House trained

  • Crate trained

  • Leash, collar, and muzzle trained

  • Knows basic obedience

  • Rides well in the car

  • Loves tug, fetch, and active play

  • Dog-friendly with proper introductions

  • Affectionate and loyal with his family

Compatibility:

  • Adults: Yes

  • Children: Best suited for homes with older children, as his size and enthusiasm may accidentally knock over little ones.

  • Dogs: Yes, with proper introductions.

  • Cats: Selective. He has shown interest in chasing household cats but has not been successful thanks to a baby gate.

Demi's ideal home would include a securely fenced yard, active and kind people who enjoy engaging with their dog, and a family willing to give him the time he needs to decompress and settle in. In return, he'll reward you with endless laughs, unwavering loyalty, and all the cuddles you could ask for.

Could Demi be the missing piece your family has been searching for?
