My story

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

Meet this incredibly sweet, people-loving boy who is all heart and cuddles 💛

This affectionate guy adores his humans and truly thrives on companionship. He loves meeting new people and quickly wins hearts with his gentle, loving nature. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick who wants nothing more than to snuggle up for naps, keep you company throughout the day, and be part of your daily routine, he’s your match. He especially enjoys being near his people at mealtimes and soaking up every moment of togetherness.

He’s potty trained, does great riding in the car, and has a playful side too—fetch is one of his favorite activities! On walks, he enjoys calm outings where he can take in the world at his own pace. He would benefit from a home that can give him space and thoughtful introductions to other dogs, as he’s most comfortable building canine friendships slowly and intentionally.

This boy would truly shine with adopters who are home often or have a flexible schedule, as he bonds deeply with his people and feels happiest when he knows they’re nearby. In return, he offers unwavering loyalty, endless affection, and the kind of companionship that makes a house feel like home.

If you’re ready for a devoted cuddle buddy who wants to be your constant companion, this sweet soul is ready to meet you.
