Lloyd

Meet Lloyd – Your Next Adventure Buddy! 🐾

Lloyd is a charming 4-year-old pup who will melt your heart with his big smile and snuggly personality. Whether you’re reading on the couch, watching TV, or simply relaxing on the floor, Lloyd will be right there, soaking up the love and offering plenty of affection. When he’s not snuggled up with you, he’s content curling up on his bed nearby. His friendly demeanor shines when meeting new people, making him a delightful companion to have around.

Lloyd is both crate-trained and house-trained, settling easily into a daily routine. He’s also well-mannered when gearing up for a walk, standing or sitting patiently while his leash and harness are secured. He’s active and curious, always ready to explore, play, and bring joy into your life.

The Perfect Match: What Lloyd Needs in a Forever Home
Lloyd is best suited for an active family who can provide him with plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and a safe, secure yard. He has a bit of a daredevil streak—jumping fences and sneaking out open doors are part of his repertoire—so a tall, sturdy fence and vigilant supervision are a must. A family with experience in dog training or patience for his quirks (like counter surfing and his bird-chasing instincts) will find him a rewarding and loyal companion.

Lloyd’s Daily Routine and Personality
Lloyd thrives on activity. He currently enjoys 1–2 daily walks at a moderate pace, plus backyard playtime with frisbees and toys, and wrestling sessions with his foster sibling. Now that he’s settling in, he could use even more exercise and would be a great partner for jogging or longer walks. Indoors, Lloyd loves to chew on toys, enjoy puzzle games, or simply sunbathe and relax.

Lloyd’s personality is a mix of curiosity and enthusiasm. While he’s focused and serious on walks—particularly when birds are in view—he’s otherwise playful and adaptable. He’s learning basic cues like “off,” “drop,” and “crate,” and he’s making progress with cues like “sit” and “wait.” With chicken or cheese as motivation, Lloyd’s eagerness to learn shines through.

Social Dynamics
Lloyd gets along well with people and has made strides in building relationships with other dogs. He thrives with slow introductions, requiring a bit of patience and time to warm up to canine companions. Once he’s comfortable, he’s playful and happy.

Things to Know About Lloyd

• Quirks: Lloyd has a few habits that make him unique! He’s a counter surfer, so kitchen access is currently restricted, and he’s known to jump on the couch or his crate to explore his surroundings. He’s learning “off” and responding well to boundaries.
• Bird Drive: Lloyd is captivated by birds and will likely need supervision outdoors to ensure he doesn’t give chase.
• Jumping: While he rarely jumps on people, when he does, it’s with enthusiasm—so potential adopters should be ready for his exuberance!
• Barking: Lloyd occasionally barks at unfamiliar noises or movements but settles down quickly once reassured. He also has a curious response to whistling, which can momentarily excite or startle him.
