My story

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

Sweet Sunny has had a bit of a rough start in life. After being adopted as a puppy, he was sadly returned two years later showing clear signs of mistreatment. But thanks to the loving care of his foster family, Sunny’s story took a beautiful turn. With patience, kindness, and LOTS of snuggles, they helped him rebuild trust—and wow, has he bloomed!

Today, Sunny is thriving. He’s playful, affectionate, and ready to take on the world (or the hiking trail!) with his forever family. He loves nothing more than going on walks, riding in the car with his ears in the wind, and curling up with you after a day of fun. Whether you’re going on an adventure or having a lazy Sunday on the couch, Sunny’s your guy.

He’s house-trained, great in the car, and has the heart of a loyal companion. While he’s not a fan of crates (understandable, given his past), he’s perfectly content snoozing nearby or at your feet.

Sunny would thrive in a home where:
- He’s treated with patience, love, and gentleness
- He can be part of daily adventures—big or small
- Snuggles are mandatory
- He’s not expected to be crated

Sunny has shown so much resilience and love—now he just needs someone to share it with. If you're looking for a fun, sweet, and loyal best friend, Sunny might be the perfect fit.
