Bringing home a puppy is exciting — and a big commitment! Puppies need structure, consistency, and lots of positive exposure to the world around them. Socialization, training, and daily interaction are what shape them into confident, well-mannered adults.
Right now he’s a blank slate — curious, playful, and learning fast. His adopter should be ready for the joys (and challenges!) of puppyhood: crate training, potty training, chewing, and plenty of energy.
As he grows, he’ll need daily exercise, ongoing engagement, and continued guidance to become his best self. If you’re ready to invest time, patience, and love, your reward will be a loyal companion for life.
Estimated adult weight is 30 to 40 pounds, no guarantees.
