Meet Shining Armor, a handsome sweetheart whose happily wagging tail is sure to brighten your day! This lovely boy is excited to see you when you arrive at his kennel for walk time. Once he's outside, he lets his friendly personality shine, greeting your company with plenty of tail wags and enjoying every moment of his little adventure with you.
Shining Armor loves taking in the world through his nose, stopping to investigate all the interesting scents along the way. This 60 pound gentleman is generally a good leash walker, although an especially exciting smell may inspire a little pulling. For him, a leisurely stroll is the perfect opportunity to explore and spend time with a friend. He is very engaged with his person and eager to interact. He also enjoys, bouncing around in the yard with his toys.
And if you happen to have treats, you'll discover the secret to making his tail wag at lightning speed! This food-loving boy knows "sit" and is happy to show off his skills for a delicious reward. He also appears to be housetrained at the shelter.
This social fellow charmed everyone he met at a Raven's game tailgate. He did well with the crowds and commotion, and was lovely meeting children of all ages. When it's time for a quiet moment, Shining Armor will happily hop onto a bench beside you for some gentle pets. Those sweet pauses together give you a chance to appreciate what a charming, affectionate companion he can be.
Shining Armor is ready to live up to his name as someone's sweet, devoted companion! During his short-term foster stay, this easygoing, low-energy boy loved being close to his person and soaking up all the pets he could get. His idea of a great day? A leisurely neighborhood walk, a tasty treat, and a cozy sofa nap.
His foster called him an "absolutely perfect loose-leash walker," making their quiet neighborhood strolls a pleasure. He also showed off a perfect sit, and with his love of just about any treat, rewarding those lovely manners was easy! Shining Armor showed great housetraining habits, promptly taking care of business when brought outside. He had one accident after a long nine-hour stretch alone on his first day. When left alone, he cried briefly, then settled down to sleep on the sofa. He didn't live with other pets or meet new people during this stay, but his foster described him as a very sweet guy with no behavioral concerns.
Looking for a gentle companion who enjoys life's simple pleasures? Shining Armor would love to meet you! Bring your affection, a few treats, and an umbrella-this handsome fellow prefers his walks without the rain.
Shining Armor has met other dogs at the shelter, he is a gentle boy and interacted politely with small dogs.
With his handsome face, cheerful tail, and love of treats and tender attention, Shining Armor has so much sweetness to share. He's ready for a home where sniff-filled strolls, gentle pets, and time with his favorite people become part of everyday life. Could you be the person who gives this sweet boy his happily ever after?
