Asher - who may also be called "Chaucer," because like the characters in The Canterbury Tales, he's on a pilgrimage - could it be to find you?

Asher is outstanding in the home, wonderful with kids, and excellent with people. While he hasn't been officially cat-tested, he may be okay with cats as well. He's truly a foster favorite.

He is gentle, affectionate, empathetic, and deeply loyal. And he has those antenna ears!

Asher has had a difficult past. He was found in a dumpster along the San Fernando Highway, and there is reasonable evidence that he may have been used as a bait dog. Because of this trauma, he must be the only dog in his home.

When Asher first came into rescue, he required urgent veterinary care, including the removal of embedded foxtails. He has since fully recovered and is thriving, with a soft coat, bright eyes, and a growing sense of safety and confidence.

Asher has completed professional training with Cade Overturf of Your Best Companion and has made wonderful progress. To support a successful transition, complimentary training sessions are included for his adopter, providing guidance and continuity as he settles into his forever home.

Asher loves walks, hikes, tug-of-war, and simply being by your side. He enjoys training, responds well to structure, and blossoms with consistent, calm leadership and affection. He is a kind soul with so much love to give and will be a devoted companion for the person or family ready to offer him a stable, dog-free home and a fresh chapter.

Note from foster:
Asher is a gentle, affectionate dog who thrives with structure and consistency. He's calm in the house, enjoys his walks and training, and forms a deep bond with his person. Because of his past, he needs to be the only dog in the home, but with people he is loyal, intuitive, and deeply loving. With a stable, dog-free home and continued guidance, Asher will be a devoted and rewarding companion.
