Meet Dopey — The Clumsy Charmer with Extra Toes and Extra Heart!

Dopey is that perfect blend of sweetness, silliness, and soul. And he's got lots to love at around 85 pounds (but haven't you always wanted a pony? LOL). This Catahoula Leopard Dog mix is a sweet boy who trips over his own feet, gives himself a pep talk, and tries again - tail wagging the whole way.

Maybe it’s the extra toes. Maybe it’s those oversized puppy paws. Whatever it is, Dopey’s delightful awkwardness makes him unforgettable. He’s got the joyful chaos of a puppy and the tender heart of an old soul, rolled into one ridiculously lovable package.

This goofy boy loves playing with his foster siblings, learning the ropes, and soaking up every ounce of affection he can find. He’s potty trained and does well with leash walking, and he greets every human and dog like they’re his long-lost best friend. (Cats remain a mystery, but he’s open to introductions!)

Want to see this sweet guy at play? A friendly doggie daycare has volunteered to let him play there. Watch the webcam here! (username: puppylove/guest password: puppylove) Look for his bright bandana.

Dopey’s dream home includes:
• A secure yard for his high-speed zoomies and outdoor adventures
• A playful canine buddy or active human to match his energy
• No small kids for now — he’s still learning about personal space and puppy boundaries

If you’re ready to add some joy, laughter, and floppy-footed love to your life, Dopey is your guy.
