Atlas

If you are looking for a dog whose heart couldn't be bigger, look no further than Atlas! This sweet 56 lb boy wants nothing more than to be your one and only, to go for long walks in the park, jogging on the beach, or summitting mountaintops in the wilderness. He is full of get-up-and-GO, and is looking for a high energy bestie to go all day long, then wind down with a cold one on the sofa in the evening. As part of your new dynamic duo, Atlas really isn't interested in sharing your affection or attention with any other dogs, and he should be the only dog in the home. To help him suceed, we recommend no dog dense areas or apartment buildings for Atlas. If your trail running routine could use a new pal, come on down and meet Atlas today! This pet is eligible for an Adoption Audition! What is an Adoption Audition? It's a 5-day, no-strings-attached, trial adoption period. You can take this pet home to try it out! Interested?
