St Thomas‘s Story
❤️St Thomas is Available ❤️
Please READ the bio and adoption requirements first to make sure you are a perfect fit BEFORE APPLYING.
Hi there! I'm St. Thomas, but my friends call me Tom—like the beautiful island! I’m a charming 1-year-old male doodle mix, tipping the scales at around 21 pounds. I'm bursting with love and energy, just waiting to find my forever family! I joined my foster family with an open heart, ready to shower everyone with affection. My daily zoomies during playtime with my human siblings always bring a smile to their faces.
Though I might think I’m a lap dog, I have a little boujee side—I prefer cozy lounging indoors but enjoy short outdoor adventures, especially if they involve chasing bugs or climbing stairs. My “kisses” (or as my foster family calls them, little licks) are my way of showing excitement when meeting new friends! I’m also a smart cookie who picks up commands quickly, making training super fun.
I thrive on a predictable routine, waking up around 5:30 a.m. for some outdoor potty time and breakfast, followed by engaging training sessions to keep my mind sharp. Throughout the day, I love hanging out with my people, playing with tennis balls (still perfecting my fetching skills), and hiding my big treats around the house for later munching. Evenings are for winding down with family before snuggling into my crate, where I can keep an eye on my foster parents.
I'm a little vocal when left alone and may bark if I can’t see my people, but with patience and socialization, I’m learning to be more comfortable during alone time. I’d love to be your loyal companion, bringing joy and laughter into your life. If you're looking for a fun, loving, and spirited buddy, I might just be the one! Ready to welcome a new friend into your heart and home? Let’s make some wonderful memories together! 🐾❤️
