My story

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

Hey there, wonderful folks! My name's Maki, and I'm here to brighten your days with my boundless energy and contagious enthusiasm. Let me give you a glimpse into why I'm the perfect furry companion for you!

First off, I'm a lovable mix, just a year old and bursting with vitality. Yep, you could say I'm a busy bee, always ready for the next adventure and eager to explore the world around me. And speaking of adventures, I'm a big fan of rope toys-give me one of those, and I'll be entertained for hours!

Now, let's address the elephant in the room-I might be a tad hyper when meeting new animals, but hey, who can blame me? I'm just excited to make new friends! The good news is, I settle down quickly once the initial excitement wears off, and I'm known for being a total sweetheart with people. Yep, I'm a people person through and through!

Oh, and let's talk treats-milk bones are my absolute favorite! There's nothing I love more than a tasty treat to reward me for being such a good boy. And speaking of being good, while I may not be fully potty trained yet, I'm a quick learner and will let you know when nature calls by heading to the back door. With a little patience and consistency, I'll have this whole potty training thing mastered in no time!

Now, about my social skills-I'm a pro at making friends! I love kids, get along great with other dogs, and even do okay with cats. Yep, I'm a real social butterfly, always ready to spread some love and joy wherever I go.

When it comes to walks, I've got a ton of energy to burn, which makes me the perfect jogging buddy for an active human like yourself! Sure, I might need a little reminder to follow commands sometimes, but with positive reinforcement and plenty of practice, I'll have those commands down pat in no time.

And guess what? I'm a curious pup who loves exploring new scents and sights. Whether it's watching ducks at the park or sniffing out hidden treasures on our walks, I'm always up for an adventure.

So, what do you say? Ready to welcome a bundle of joy and energy into your home? I promise to fill your days with laughter, love, and plenty of tail wags. Let's make some unforgettable memories together!
