Myers is a sweet, emotionally intelligent, and occasionally chaotic Golden Retriever & Belgian Malinois mix who’s looking for a fresh start in life.
If you’re a movie fan, yes—he’s named after Michael Myers!
He’s very friendly, expressive, and affectionate (expect to get your face licked when you’re on his level—or for him to jump up against you).
He would thrive in a home where he's treated like true family, with daily connection, affection, and indoor comfort.
Myers has lived the majority of his life outside, which isn’t ideal for—well, any dog. As a Golden Retriever Mix, he’s meant to be close to his people, not left alone in a yard.
As much as we love Myers, we’re unable to give him the life he truly deserves—with walks, play, affection, and indoor living.
He’s been trying his best in his current situation—he’s remained positive and loving throughout—but he needs more than we can offer.
We’re rehoming him with love, and only to someone who can provide the structure, comfort, and companionship he’s been missing.
If you have the time, patience, love, and home (bonus points if it has A/C—he’ll love that), then you’re exactly who I’m hoping for.
