Meet Theodore. In the kennels, you’ll hear him bef Meet Theodore. In the kennels, you’ll hear him before you truly know him. He barks until his voice is gone, hides under blankets trying to escape the noise, and struggles with the stress around him. Shelter life has been hard on this sweet senior boy.

But outside of the kennel doors, Theodore becomes someone completely different.

He’s a loving old soul with plenty of life left to live. He still enjoys walks and adventures, loves being close to people, and would happily spend his day cuddled up beside you. 

He knows sit and down on the first ask, comes when called, and is incredibly eager to please. He snores with the sweetest old-man soundtrack, makes adorable little piggy snort noises when he gets excited, and has the kind of personality that makes you smile without even trying.

When Theodore stayed in foster, they said he was amazing. Well behaved in the home, trustworthy when left out, never getting into anything… just content to relax nearby. He loves deeply and wants nothing more than to be close to his people.

Theodore doesn’t show his best self in the shelter, and that may be costing him the chance he deserves. The stress of kennel life is loud, overwhelming, and unfair to a dog like him. His real personality is waiting just outside those kennel doors.

If you’re ready to open your home, Theodore would love to meet you. hsdayton.org/adopt/dogs

 If adoption isn’t possible right now, fostering could change his world. hsdayton.org/foster

 If fostering isn’t the right fit, take him on a Doggy Day Out and give him a much-needed break from the shelter. hsdayton.org/doggy-day-out

 And if none of those are possible, sharing his story could help the right person find him.
Theodore is waiting to be seen.
