My story

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

Hi there, I’m Stetson!

I’m about 8–12 months old (we’re not totally sure), but one thing is certain: I’m small for my breed because I didn’t get the best start in life. I came from a rural Oklahoma shelter where they thought I was a tiny 4-month-old puppy with a broken pelvis. Surprise! Turns out I’m older—and my femur had once been completely shattered and healed on its own. Because it healed without surgery, one of my back legs is a little shorter, giving me the cutest little hop when I run and play. It doesn’t stop me one bit, but it does mean I may have some arthritis as I get older. I hope you won’t let that scare you away—I love walks, playtime, and exploring the world!

I’m currently living with three dogs and a cat. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t like, but I definitely prefer playful friends, because I can be a bit… annoying to the older grumpy sister dog in my house. As for the cat, well—I can’t decide if she’s a friend or some sort of strange alien creature. I’m not aggressive at all, but I may bark at her occasionally just to voice my confusion.

I adore people and would do great in an active home with older kids. I’m still pretty mouthy and learning how to play gently, so I wouldn’t want to accidentally hurt a tiny human. I’m eager to please, very redirectable, and doing awesome with structure and consistency. I’m fully house-trained, crate-trained, and I sleep through the night in my crate like a champ.

My favorite hobbies include emptying the toy box, playing with every toy I find, and showing off my flirt-pole skills—I’m a pro at catching that thing!

If you’re looking for a sweet, goofy, resilient, and incredibly loving companion with a signature hop, I just might be your guy.
