My story

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

While I may not be a literary trailblazer like my namesake, I am an accomplished eight month old pup in my own right! From mastering the zoomies at least once per day, acting cat-like when I get my favourite treat and perfecting soaking up the sun's rays, I am a true master and enigma. 😉

I'm Poe and while I don't want to brag too much, I'm a "Poeser" in the most adorable way. I'm handsome, friendly and polite. 😁 I'm a Shepherd mix and currently clock in at approximately 40 pounds.

I like being around other dogs and my favourite has to be medium/large dogs because they play like me. Got kiddos? That's even better because I love being around kids and I have a gentle way about me when kids are near. I'm a natural at comforting kids and giving affection. ♥️

I love going for walks and not much of a puller unless I'm looking for the perfect potty spot. There are just so many spots to choose from! I'm pretty used to my crate too....I go in at night, sometimes during the day when I'm alone and when I'm in the car. I get SO excited when my humans get home and let me out but I'm such a good boy and always remember my manners. ☺️

I'm getting the hang of potty training. I have some pretty obvious signs when I need out like frantic sniffing and interest in the door. My humans are awesome at reading my signs so they get gold stars too! 😉

While I've never been in the army, I'm told my commando crawl is better than some seasoned soldiers. My playful exuberance often leads to backyard zoomies with laps around the yard at top speed. When my energy has waned a little, you can find me soaking up the sunshine in all its glory. 🌞

I take cues from my humans so whether you're up for a walk or run or looking to chill on the sofa, I'm good to follow you and initiate sidekick mode to the max. My easygoing personality makes me a great pup for any family. Apply today to meet me and let's start our adventures together! 💙

**At this time, Poe hasn't been tested with cats.
