In a Nutshell: Spongebob’s foster describes him as a “Spicy Meatball of emotions…80% of the time he’s Will Ferrell in Elf, the other 20% he’s more like Cornholio-mode Beavis” which is one of my personal favorite descriptions of our one of our foster dogs, ever. In other words: this guy is a character. And with a face like that, I really wouldn’t expect any less.

Spongebob is living with another dog in foster and doing well overall, but he can be overexcited and super playful in a way that not all other dogs will appreciate/tolerate. He’s still learning how to take cues from other dogs and can struggle when seeing them out on walks, but seems to do well one-on-one with a backyard intro.

He can be a bit sensitive to handling and appreciates predictable movements and touching. For this reason, he will do best in an adults-only home.

Spongebob is potty-trained and has done well when left home alone for a few hours, isn’t too noise-sensitive and could probably live in an apartment (though walks may be a challenge he needs to work on a bit). He is a total snuggler lapdog and loves to find a cozy spot near his people - he can be a bit of velcro dog, following you around and wagging his butt the whole time - so he’d probably love to have adopters who are home often and eager for a snuggly little weirdo in their lives.
