My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Burger!

Burger is an adorable 4-year-old male, who is eagerly searching for his home. This lovable guy is bursting with playfulness, making every day an adventure in his eyes. Burger is sure to bring a smile to your face and fill your home with joy.

Burger thrives on interaction and loves to engage in activities with his human friends. He would be the perfect companion for an active person who enjoys spending time outdoors. While Burger is generally a social butterfly, he can be a bit timid and cautious in new situations. Patience and gentle encouragement will go a long way in helping him build up his confidence. Food is one of Burger's biggest motivators, which makes him the perfect pup for training. With positive reinforcement and a handful of treats, Burger is ready to learn all sorts of tricks and commands!

In addition to his playful nature, Burger has a cozy side. He enjoys taking leisurely naps, right by your side! Burger would thrive in a home where someone has a flexible schedule and ample time to spend with him. An owner who can provide companionship and lots of love will be rewarded with a loyal and devoted furry friend.

Quick Stats!
-- Dogs: Does well with other dogs, with slow and appropriate introductions.
-- Cats: Does not currently live with cats. Will require training if joining a home with a cat.
-- Children: Does well with kids but do best in a home where he is the primary focus.
