04/10/2015 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: We are cray-cray-crazy about SpaceJam, even if we can’t figure out his name. A small detail when compared to the magnificence (and magnitude) of his kisses, his adoration of other dogs, his delight in hanging with the humans. He has no issues with food or toys, and he’s a great companion in the park, strolling along and wagging his tail. SpaceJam is a bit stressed in the shelter, which is all the more reason we are rooting for him to get out of here and into your loving home! Please come meet this fun-loving, sweet brindle boy! Another volunteer writes: Space Jam is no basketball star (his jump shot is more often used on friends than during a game!) but he still loves to play and really proved himself my MVP of the day when it comes to fetch. Though he likes to keep the ball, SJ always returns with it and thanks to the loose way he chomps (either on or off my lap) it often falls from his mouth so I can pick it up again with ease. He enjoys petting, sits on command to gently accept treats and when other dogs approach he meets them with quiet, calm friendship…and sometimes a little surprise pee! Now that he’s officially proven himself by rocking his behavior assessment, SJ is ready, willing and able to fulfil his new role as a gorgeous, loyal and loving pet for an active family. Recruit him for your home team today!
