Meet Dalton – Your New Best Friend (and Couch Buddy). Dalton is a 4-year-old Catahoula/Pit mix with a heart of gold and the soul of an old friend. At 65 lbs, he’s a gentle guy who’s been through some things (his scars tell a story we’ll never know), but all he wants now is to be close to someone who loves him.

Dalton isn’t into toys or roughhousing—his idea of a good time is a leisurely walk followed by quality time on the couch (preferably in your lap). He’s chill, affectionate, and hilariously “talkative”—you’ll swear he speaks English. He lets you know when he needs to go out, and he’ll remind you if you miss the cue!

He’s great with other dogs, respectful of cats when told to leave them be, and kind with kids, he just prefers not the rough-and-tumble type. Thunderstorms aren’t his favorite, but a little medication helps him ride them out like a champ.

Dalton is fully vetted, neutered, and ready for his forever home. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion who just gets you, Dalton’s your guy.
