Lex Luther

Handsome man Lex wants furever with you!

Meet foster pup, Lex Luther! This mild-mannered, 4-year-young sweetheart is ready to settle down with a family of his very own. He has been fortunate to stay with an incredibly loving foster home while in search of his furever, and they let us know the following about sweet boy Lex:

"This pup is the sweetest. He is a lover of every human he's met here so far and he's so mild mannered. He knows how to sit and we're working on teaching him to stay. His most favorite activities involve sleeping by the fireplace or playing with his squishy toys. He loves the ones with squeakers the most. He's a tail wagger and a cuddle bug.

He prefers not to enter a kennel so we toss treats in the back and he goes right in. He's not a big barker at all, I think he's only barked 1-2x a day and that's mostly been at his own tail.

He loves his feeding time and hasn't come across a treat he didn't like. He doesn't beg for food but will lay right at your feet under the dinner table and not bug you a bit.

His ideal home would be someone that likes pup cuddles and if they had a fireplace he'd be in heaven! He loves to run and play outside so a fenced yard would be best for his posh life but he also loves playing indoors if you throw his toy around for him just as much."

So, what do ya say? Does Lex Luther sound like the pawfect pup for you? Nicole at ncameron@bvspca.org to set up an introduction.
