Flannary, an anglicized form of Irish descendants meaning red eyebrows, suits him perfectly as he sports one red eyebrow and one full red/copper eye spot! (He is also the perfect reverse image of the doggie emoji!) AND if you catch a glimpse of him sleeping his ear patch forms a perfectly shaped heart!! Which is totally perfect for our Flannary as he is a boy who is ALL heart!!

 

Please tip your hat and welcome Flannary to SEPR!  Flannary escaped shelter life just in time for Saint Patrick’s Day 2019. While most people were pretending they were Irish and drinking green beer our Flannary was doing his own happy Irish jig on his freedom ride to Sioux Falls.

Flannary arrived already knowing sit, down and shake and he took treats and food from his foster moms hand so gently.  Flannary is a quick study and has mastered look, look and wait, both for food and at the door. He also knows come, sit up, high five and get down. He plays food games with the wobbler, snuffle mat and muffin tins and will chase a flirt pole too! Flannary has a top notch sniffer and would be perfect for nose work as well. He will “ kennel up” with ease and stays quiet while kenneled... at least until his foster momma comes home. He is both crate trained and house trained.

​

It’s hard to pinpoint Flannary's exact energy level because it goes from high to low quickly. First thing out of the kennel and he’s bouncing around like the energizer bunny, but a quick trip outside and some play time or a short walk and he’s 100% couch potato. Flannary loves to run around the yard and explore the gardens joyfully. Much to his foster moms dismay he also loves rolling in the grass and mud with a giant goofy grin on his face. Luckily, he’s a good sport when it comes to bath time! Not so great, it  appears he can be more sensitive to bug bites and has gotten hives as a result, luckily they were very easily treated. 

 

Flannary lives with 3 other dogs and is BFF’s with all of them. He loves romping around the yard with them, playing chase and general boy goofiness'. He loves to play, but afterwards will pile up on a dog bed or the couch and nap. He loves naps! Foster mom calls Flannary the instigator of fun, he loves a good time and is always in a happy mood. 

We have classified Flannary as a Stage 100 Clinger, he wants to be near his person all the time, as close as possible. He absolutely loves cuddle time and is an excellent body warmer.  He is extremely generous with his affection. Flannary is great in the car and friendly during outings. Flannary loves walks and has vastly improved his leash manners since arriving to rescue with help of his stylish backpack.

​
