BFF
RECENTLY ADOPTED

BFF

Personality Color: green

Green dogs are a bit more shy and sensitive, maybe a little anxious, but are sweet and they try hard. These dogs will flourish with patient adopters providing gentle guidance and confidence building. They are likely too timid for active homes with children, and would do best in a calm, quiet home getting the TLC they deserve.

My name is BFF, and I am a sweet, sensitive pup with a heart of gold. I might be a little timid when stepping into new situations, but I am a gentle soul who tries so hard every day to show my loving, playful side.

Once I know you’re in my corner, I am the ultimate Best Friend Forever! Here are a few things that make me a top-tier sidekick:

  • Plushie Connoisseur: Fast-moving balls and hectic games aren’t really my style, but give me a soft plushie toy and I will happily show off my gentle playfulness!
  • Gentle Snack Manners: I take treats so softly and politely—tasty rewards and slow-feeder puzzle bowls are the absolute best way to help me build up my confidence.
  • Wants a Dog Buddy: I love making polite canine friends! Having a calm, confident dog brother or sister in the home to show me the ropes would be my dream come true.
  • Affection on My Terms: I am a tender-hearted pup who appreciates soft voices, slow approaches, and sweet pets when I come in for cuddles.

I am looking for a quiet, patient home (and gentle kids 8+) with humans who understand that true friendship is built step-by-step. With soft-spoken encouragement and a cozy spot by your side, I know I will hit my stride and blossom into your dream companion.

Check out what his foster has to say!

BFF (we’ve been calling him Beef) is a smart, gentle, and energetic dog! He’s fit in well alongside us and our 9 month old pit puppy.
The dogs get along great and we’re pals from the start. He’s conquering his fears and being very brave around the house.
He’s learned to go up and down the stairs and get on and off of couches. All of which made him nervous yesterday. Him being very food motivated and smart makes it seem like he will be relatively easy to train.
We are crating him over nights in our room and he did very well with that last night.

I’m in foster care, so please fill out an application and email it directly to adoptafoster@apsofdurham.org
