Ideal pet
Fragile, but not broken.
Tommy has been through hell and back. He’s survived physical and emotional abuse, and the kind of instability no dog should ever endure. And yet—he still looks for connection. He still chooses to love.
This deaf marshmallow is fiercely loyal. It takes a little time for him to trust, but once he does, he’s yours for life. Tommy bonds hard, and he’s looking for someone who will do the same.
Tommy has been through training and communicates beautifully in his own way. His future family will need to learn his language, and we’ll guide you through it—because that bond is so worth it.
Tommy’s ideal pace? One leg kicked out in a sunny spot. 💤☀️ His vibe is couch potato with very short bursts of zoomies. He enjoys play dates with familiar dog friends, but home is his sanctuary, and he needs to be the only pet in it for right now. Transitions are hard, and he deserves peace.
He may be fragile—but he’s not broken. He’s resilient, loving, and ready for a home that understands just how special he is.
Tommy is adoptable through Henrico Humane Society.
