Description

Meet Atticus - equal parts handsome boxer mix, goofy comedian, and oversized cuddle bug! This sweet boy is ready to bring laughs, love, and plenty of squeaky toy concerts into his forever home.  Atticus has a fun, clownish personality that keeps everyone smiling. He LOVES treats, squeaky toys, car rides, and being close to his people. Need a couch buddy? He’s your guy. Need a walking partner? Also your guy. Atticus walks wonderfully on leash without pulling and already knows how to sit for snacks (which, in his opinion, should be handed out frequently). He’s the kind of dog who bonds closely with his people and looks to them for reassurance in new situations. Loud, busy places aren’t really his favorite scene, but with a little encouragement he handles them like a champ.  And if a thunderstorm rolls in? Atticus would like to formally request cuddles immediately. Rain and thunder can make him nervous, and being held close is basically his emotional support plan. Atticus may not do so well with cats, so a kitty-free home may be best for this silly sweetheart. If you’re looking for a dog that will keep you laughing, steal your blankets, and love you with his whole goofy heart, Atticus is waiting to meet you.
