My story

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

Meet Nugget!
Nugget (dob 7/11/25) is a sweet mixed breed puppy (best guesses - Lab/Pit/Carolina Dog?) who’s as lovable as he is adorable. This little guy has the perfect balance of playful energy and snuggly charm. While he can be a bit timid with new people at first, with patience and love his true personality shines bright. He does love other dogs so another dog in the home may help him adjust to new home.
Nugget’s favorite things:
• Rolling in the grass and soaking up the sunshine
• Chew toys and tasty treats
• Snuggling up for naps (he’s a champion cuddler!)
• Playing with other dogs and even cats
• Running, climbing stairs, and zipping through the doggy door like a pro
• Calm bath times and mealtime excitement

He’s adventurous too. Nugget even gave swimming a try! While it’s not his favorite, he didn’t hate it either. He’s agile, curious, and learning quickly. Potty training is going really well!

Nugget would do best in a home filled with patience, kindness, and love, where he can continue to build his confidence and blossom into the amazing companion he’s meant to be.

If you’re ready to add a loyal, affectionate, and playful pup to your family, Nugget is waiting to meet you!
