Tom is a gentle soul with lots of love to give! He loves pets and will look at you with pleading eyes and inch a little bit closer if you stop before he's ready.
Tom loves exploring outside and is very interested in his surroundings. He can be excitable on a leash but how could you blame him when there are so many new things to see? Tom is the same with food - he's so excited to eat all of it that he forgets to chew sometimes! However, Tom has been great at eating his food slowly when using a slow feeder and has also been working on leash training with his foster!
An ideal day for Tom would involve lots of naps and cuddles with his forever family with a few walks where he can get his dose of exploring the outside world. Tom has met dogs on walks and in his foster homes; he is very excited by them and would likely do well with another dog when given the proper introductions. He has not been tested with cats but mainly shows excitement with smaller animals like squirrels. Tom loves meeting new people, whether young or old, and has done very well with a small child in the home.
Tom is currently recovering from Demodex mange and has had a previous skin cancer lump removed, making him more sensitive. This means he should wear UV-protective clothing outside which just makes him more fashionable! He has also had a mast cell removed with a chance of reoccurrence - this means doing regular checks for any lumps and checking in with the vet. Tom has a medicated shampoo to help his skin which he uses once a week to keep him looking fresh.
If you're looking for a curious and affectionate dog to join your family, Tom is right here! He gets very attached to his humans and loves their company. Apply now to welcome this handsome boy into your family!
