RVSPCA Furry Friday: Dakota

Today’s Furry Friday at the RVSPCA is Dakota – and with that face, it’d be hard to say no to playtime, belly rubs, and love!

Dakota is a delightful shepherd mix puppy who would make a great candidate for puppy kindergarten obedience classes. He is already retrieving at his young age. He is very active and rambunctious, and, like most puppies, he has cuteness to spare!

Already weighing in at 15 pounds, Dakota is going to grow up to be big boy! He has been vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. Meet him today at the Roanoke Valley SPCA.
