If Flotsam could talk, he would say he really wants a special family who will love him, play with him, teach him new things, and help him mature into the amazing companion he’s meant to be. Could this cheerful love bug of a guy be your doggie match made in heaven?

Coat: Short and white with grayish-blue spots.

Location: Virginia Beach SPCA in Virginia.

Activity level: High.

Likes: Running, playing chase, wrestling with his doggie friends, tennis balls, going for walks, getting lots of attention, and Kong toys.

Dislikes: Nothing!

Training: Flotsam has been working on good cage behavior, basic obedience commands, and loose-leash walking, which he’s picking up quickly.

Yard requirements: Given his energy level, a fenced-in yard would be ideal so he can run around safely.

Kids: Due to his exuberance and enthusiasm, Flotsam would do best with children 6 years and older.

His story: Flotsam was picked up as a stray and transferred to VBSPCA in early February of this year.

His ideal forever home: Flotsam would flourish in a loving, active family who would be committed to continuing his obedience training, and providing him with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. He would also love a canine brother or sister who would enjoy playing with him.
