Fletcher

Meet Fletcher: The Sweet, Soulful Snooze-Buddy You've Been Waiting For

If you've ever wished your dog came with a "deep thinker" setting, let us introduce Fletcher - a 5-ish-year-old German Shorthair Pointer with the calm dignity of a wise old professor… and the occasional goofy habit that reminds you he's still very much a dog.

Fletcher is a 60-lb sweetheart with eyes so soulful you may find yourself sharing your life story before you realize it. He's quiet, gentle, and happiest when curled up next to you on the couch or bed while you read, watch TV, or ponder the meaning of life together. He's a world-class snuggler and an A+ lounge companion.

But don't let his philosopher vibes fool you - he does have strong opinions. For example:

He believes squirrels are untrustworthy and must be monitored at all times.
He feels very strongly that small dogs might be suspicious until proven otherwise.
He is pretty sure the neighbors walking their dogs past his house need a polite announcement (but he'll settle down quickly if you reassure him they're not invading).

Fletcher gets along great with dogs his own size, and he lights up when meeting new people. Kids? Likely fine, though not officially tested. Cats? Absolutely not. Squirrels? Hard pass. Anything small and scurrying? Also no. Let's just say he's firmly Team "No Tiny Creatures in My Space.

He's not big on toys, but he will groan adorably when he's tired, and he'll reluctantly tolerate the crate-even though he's certain he has better places to be. He's also working on perfecting indoor manners: keeping all four paws on the floor, resisting the siren call of the kitchen counter, and proving he is trustworthy without a belly band. (We're not quite there yet, but he's trying.)

Despite a few quirks, Fletcher is truly a gentle, thoughtful, loving dog who wants nothing more than a calm home, a cozy couch, and a human who appreciates a good cuddle and a quiet companion. He's loyal, affectionate, and has that special old-soul charm that makes you feel lucky just to share space with him.

If you're looking for a sweet, steady, deeply loving dog who will watch shows with you, nap beside you, and gaze into your soul like you're the best thing that ever happened to him - Fletcher is your guy.
