Hey there!! The name is SHADOE and yes, that is HOW it is spelled!! Its called the "new spelling" that is ALL THE RAGE with the youngsters 😊
Let me tell you about ME! I am a boomer, so new spelling and new math are lost on me 😊 I just want to hang out on the "davenport" and get ALL the love you have!
I was found and saved by a nice Millennial, she has been taking such great care of me...so I don't give her a hard time about her "change making skills 😊" This is what she has to say about me...
"Shadoe loves other dogs, definitely is a pack animal. Loves people. Is house broken and can be outside the crate without any problems. Loves the couch, food, treats, eats like a vacuum. Has an easy going temperament. Loves to cuddle and lick your face if you let him. Still has a lot of endurance and loves going on walks up to 2-3 miles. You can tell he was an outdoor dog before he was saved, because when I feed them he runs out the dog door and I have to remind him to eat inside :>(" Shadoe never complains about being an inside dog :D
As you can see, I am a great great older dog who wants someone's couch to hang on and like an semi-ACTIVE retiree, I will walk with you for a couple of miles too!! Just don't forget my head and wrist bands and leg warmers for our trips!! I also LOVE LOVE car rides!! I am an iDEAL driving buddy, just strap me and and I will read the map for you ;)
ADOPT ME!! I would LOVE a family for Christmas and the rest of my Christmases!!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
