Psst… hi! SANDMAN here.

I'm a three-legged love machine who learns fast, cuddles hard, and just wants to be your gentle, goofy shadow on the couch.

My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.

I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.

I've been holding down the fort in Alameda, hoping someone like you would wander by.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

With a little luck, Labor Day could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.

Thanks for stopping by and giving me a moment — it honestly made my whole day. — SANDMAN

About SANDMAN

â¢ Smart and eager to learnâ¢ Affectionate cuddle bugâ¢ Playful and socialSandman is a lovable, goofy tripod with a big personality and an even bigger heart. When he went to foster for a bit, he settled beautifully into home life and clearly enjoyed being part of the family. Heâs house trained, crate trained, learned to ring a bell to go potty, and loves having a cozy routine that includes naps, walks, chew toys, and lots of affection.He gets along well with other dogs and loves inviting them to play. Tug-of-war is one of his favorite games and heâs especially sweet with smaller dogs, often letting them âwin.â Frozen kongs, chew toys, and cuddle time help him unwind and heâs become quite the couch companion.Sandman is very food and toy motivated, which makes him easy to train. He already knows âsit,â responds well to redirection, and has been making steady progress on leash manners. He can get excited when he sees other dogs on walks, but heâs improving with guidance and responds well to structure and positive reinforcement. Heâs a smart dog who learns quickly when expectations are consistent.He would likely thrive in a home with older kids and would love a canine playmate. Heâs also wonderfully tolerant with grooming, enjoys bath time, and happily soaks up attention from his people.Sandman is the kind of dog who will make you laugh daily with his silly antics then immediately melt into you for cuddles at the end of the day. Heâs looking for a patient, active home that will continue helping him grow into the amazing companion heâs already becoming.
