Male Dog,

Unknown Breed (Short Coat)

Description:

Have you ever wanted a very tiny horse? While Cobalt is very technically a dog, this lanky speedster might just fit the bill, watch him go here! Cobalt is a lover at his core, and will never let you forget how much he loves you unconditionally. He'll curl up right next to you on the couch and give you a little nudge until you give him a pet, an in turn will give you a few gentle kisses to show you how grateful he is. He is very people-oriented, and loves to be around them in almost any setting. He has also learned to appreciate the finer things in life, and loves listening to some classical music on the piano, or whatever other entertainment you had in mind. Cobalt is a spry guy despite his years, so in between his marathon nap sessions (that take up most of his day), he’d love a place where he can show off his zoomies. When Cobalt knows he's going on a walk, he'll start jumping up and down out of pure excitement. He's got the craziest vertical and could definitely join the 76ers! He adores stuffed animals (he carries his half destroyed lambchop plush around) and loves to destroy tennis balls. He won't say no to a game of fetch either. The hustle and bustle of city life can be a bit much for this senior gentleman, so apartment living and a busy neighborhood is not for him. That said, if you have a yard and a cozy couch, Cobalt would love to snuggle up beside you and take his rightful place as your heated/weighted blanket. While he's content snoozing the day away on his own, his dream home would include a parent who isn't away for long hours each day. While people of all ages and stages have a place in Cobalt’s heart, he’s a little more particular about the non-humans around him, so he’d prefer a home without cats or small dogs. If you’d like to learn more about Cobalt, we’d love to hear from you! You can fill out an application for this goofball here, or email us with additional questions at [email protected].
