A volunteer writes: The very first thing Sully did was give me a huge stand up hug, paws on my shoulders his eyes looking shyly into mine as if to say “hold me, I’m scared”. He’s a gorgeous pup, his latte color coat clean and well groomed, his weight perfect for his size, and his demeanor soft and gentle. His intake notes say “enjoys interacting”, and that he does. Hugs, tail wags and smiles are part of his routine and I’m not sure which of us enjoyed it all more – Sully or me. We walked to the park, stopped to take some pictures, and once in the backyard off leash hugged some more and played with a toy. I toss, he chases and brings it back for another toss. His eyes sparkle with anticipation of the next throw, his tail wags and there
he goes. And, repeat, repeat, repeat. We played a bit of tug with his toy, and then another toss. Sully gives the best hugs, and has a sweet, calm lovely energy. He’s amazingly ‘soft’ for a big puppy, and is looking for his new family with whom to grow old. He’s amazing, I’m in love and you will be too. Ask to meet him today.
