My story

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

Meet Bueller!

Bueller arrived as a stray with no known history, so his past is a bit of a mystery. He's curious but cautious - he appreciates slow, gentle introductions to new people and places and really shines when given space and patience. Bueller loves attention, but on his own terms, and he's ready to work on training with someone who can read his cues and help him feel confident.



My Ideal Home

Bueller will do best in a home where his person has time for consistent, positive training and can offer predictable routines. A calm, patient household that can provide slow introductions to new people and situations will help him thrive. Because he can be particular about his things, a home where he can have his own safe space and belongings is ideal.



Good with Kids?

Not recommended for very young children. Bueller can be sensitive to fast movements and may prefer older, respectful children who understand how to give him space and approach him calmly.



Good with Other Pets?

Bueller has shown that he doesn't always like to share food, toys, or bedding, so he may do best as the only pet or in a home with very carefully managed, gradual introductions and supervision. Household-by-household meet-and-greets and a slow, structured introduction plan would be important.



Leash Manners

Bueller is ready to learn leash skills and would benefit from continued practice and positive reinforcement. He may be uncertain in new environments at first, so short, calm walks and a patient handler will help build his confidence and walking manners.



Overall Health

Healthy overall. He arrived safe at the shelter and is comfortable while he continues to settle in. Routine veterinary care and standard preventive care will be needed as recommended by your veterinarian.



Behavior Determination

Experienced Adopters / Patient Trainers - Bueller would benefit from someone with experience reading canine body language, working through resource-guarding tendencies, and providing consistent, positive training. He's eager to learn but needs a calm, confident handler to help him succeed.



Other Fun Facts

Bueller is a sweet, affectionate dog once he feels safe - he loves attention when he's ready for it and responds well to gentle encouragement. He's curious about the world and shows real potential with training and structure. If you're looking for a loyal companion who will blossom with patience and love, Bueller could be a great match.
