Take Me Home Tuesday: Donny
In this week's episode of Take Me Home Tuesday, we are featuring a three-year-old pup that was transferred to the Sudbury SPCA shelter from another centre.
Donny is a tan and white large-breed dog with a gentle disposition that was found as a stray.

Jen Hughes of the Sudbury SPCA said he is doing really well and getting used to his surroundings at the facility located at College Boreal on Lasalle Boulevard.
Donny likes people, loves toys and is very food motivated, which Hughes said is a good tool for training and will help him keep focused on his trainer.

The soft and sweet dog requires patience and training, needing help with manners and learning no to jump on people.
He is not reactive to cats in the shelter and in fact, tried to lay with one when CTV News was at the shelter on Tuesday afternoon.
With help from the SPCA to guide the transition process, Donny could make a great companion.
