Hi there! I’m Meatball a silly, meatball of a boy! I'm 3 years old and full of goofiness and snuggles. I love to go for walks and will sit nicely for the leash. My volunteers like me to use a harness because apparently otherwise, I pull a lot but it is just because I am so excited to go out for a walk. My volunteers say I am a good boy because I respond well to re-direction and because I am treat motivated, I listen pretty darn well and will continue to learn quickly. My volunteers made me this cool video, so after you watch it, please come meet me!

Please remember that the shelter is a stressful environment; many dogs come to Front Street as strays without any known history. While staff and volunteers do their best to learn about each dog, behavior in the shelter is not always the same as behavior in a home. Keeping the 3/3/3 Decompression Rule in mind is important. Three days for initial decompression, three weeks to learn the routines of your household, and three months to start to feel relaxed and safe in the home. When you adopt, foster, or are a new pet parent, it's especially important to consider.
