Cameron will be an amazing addition to your home! This 4-year-old rescue is incredibly empathetic, loving, and knows exactly when to give comfort. While he has the capacity for hikes or walks with other dogs, he absolutely does not require constant exercise. He is completely happy to stay home all day with just quick trips outside to pee, making him a perfect match for a more relaxed or busy lifestyle.
Cameron is house-trained, leash-trained, and knows basic commands. He takes a moment to warm up and can be vocal at first, but once he knows you, he is pure sweetness. He did wonderfully living with a child in his first home. Recently, he tried a new home where he adjusted perfectly and his owner adored him, but the resident senior dog preferred to be an only pet. If you are looking for a true, low-maintenance partner for sofa snuggles and easy loyalty, Cameron is ready to meet you!
