Cassius is a medium-sized bundle of joy with a big heart and an even bigger love for treats. This happy-go-lucky pup is eager to please, especially if there’s a snack involved—he already knows how to sit on command (though he doesn’t always hold it for long!) and takes treats ever so gently from your hand. He's been working on learning to lay on command, though he could just be following the direction of the treat! Cassius has a playful, puppy-like energy and is still learning the ropes. He gets excited easily—expect some joyful jumping and a little leash nibbling when he’s extra revved up—but he settles down nicely after burning off some energy. Once he's had a chance to explore, he walks much more calmly on leash. He’s very affectionate and loves being pet, especially those magical butt scratches. Cassius has done well with other dogs in shelter playgroups and would likely enjoy a doggie playmate with a similar energy level. He’ll thrive in a home that can match his enthusiasm. He has been patiently waiting for a home for over a year now. Through it all, he’s stayed cheerful, affectionate, and full of life. He’s still dreaming of the day he gets to curl up in a place—and with a person—he can finally call his own.
