Beckett came to CVHS after the other dog in the home attacked him over a disagreement about a toy. His owners felt it would be safest and most comfortable for everyone if Beckett finds a new home where he can be the only dog.

Beckett is a playful pup, looking for a home where he is not expected to share attention, space, or toys with other dogs. Beckett loves adult people, and is very attached to anyone he considers "his" family. He will initially bark at strangers, but once he gets to say hi he is happy to make friends. Beckett is not confident with fast movements or sudden petting though, so he needs an experienced dog owner who understands dog body language, and will advocate for him if someone he meets makes him uncomfortable.

He has lots of energy, and would make a great hiking or walking companion. For this happy pup, ball is life! He is looking for someone who will never tire of playing fetch with him, and he would thrive in a fenced-in yard. He's not all energy though, Beckett loves to curl up and cuddle when playtime is over.

He did live with a small child, but seemed to find it stressful, and we've seen him nervous around kids, so he needs an adult-only home, without visiting kids. He should also have a home without any cats. He also is not a dog park or daycare dog. Beckett is crate trained and house trained.

A 5-week Good Manners training course is included in Beckett's $350.00 adoption fee. Please call the Adoption Center at 802-476-3811, or email [email protected], to schedule a time to talk to an adoption counselor about him, and to determine if you should meet Beckett.
