My story

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

Potato is in his teenage phase, which means he’s a wonderful mix of shy, silly, energetic, and unbelievably endearing. He’s still figuring out this big world, and right now he’s a little unsure of new places and new expectations. Because of that, he needs some help building confidence—especially with leash walking. He’d much rather stay close to his safe space unless he has a patient human to cheer him on.

But once Potato does take that brave step outside?
He blossoms into the happiest, bounciest, zoomiest boy you’ve ever seen. This kid LOVES to run. The play yard is his personal racetrack, and he’s always ready for a lively game of “catch me if you can” (he thinks it’s hilarious). He has no idea he’s a big boy—he moves through life with the enthusiasm of a tiny puppy and occasionally forgets where his limbs are, so a home that can appreciate joyful chaos is exactly his vibe.

Despite his teenage goofiness, Potato is genuinely one of the sweetest dogs in our care. He has zero meanness in him—just confusion, curiosity, and a huge desire to be loved. He’ll flop onto his back the second you give him attention, offering his belly for rubs and melting into your hands. If he could physically fit in your lap, trust us… he absolutely would.

Potato is very smart, eager to learn, and just needs someone who sees the incredible dog he’s destined to become. With time, structure, and lots of love, this big-hearted boy will grow into the most loyal, beautiful companion.

If you’re ready to help a shy, goofy, lovable teen grow into his best self, Potato might be your perfect match.
