My story

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

Come meet this sweet, lovable boy!

He’s been working hard on his training and already knows sit, stay, lie down, place, spin, kennel, and “look at me.” He proudly graduated from kindergarten and is now enrolled in 1st-grade training.

Because he’s still learning polite greetings and working on not jumping when he gets excited, small children should be supervised around him. Families with previous dog experience are strongly recommended! He’s continuing to build important manners, and with time and guidance, he’ll become an even better fit for a family with kids. Due to his high energy and ongoing training, he tends to do best with older or bigger children who can match his enthusiasm.

He’s a floppy, energetic little guy who also loves to relax and snuggle. Having come to the shelter at such a young age, he’s still learning how to “dog,” and he’s making wonderful progress. He enjoys playing with dogs of all kinds and especially thrives with larger pups who can keep up with his playful spirit.
