My story

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

Meet Rush - A young male puppy with a confident spirit and lots of promise.

While Rush`s exact breed mix is unknown, it is believed he may have some Malinois traits, bringing together intelligence, focus, and a natural drive to engage with the world around him.

Rush already shows strong leadership qualities and is often the first to initiate play with his siblings. He loves a good, fierce game of tug of war and happily throws himself into playtime with enthusiasm and determination. He is also very observant, carefully watching everything that happens in his environment, a trait that highlights both his intelligence and awareness.

He has proven himself to be a very good boy in everyday situations. During bath time with his siblings, Rush behaved beautifully, remaining calm and cooperative. He enjoys chew toys and interactive games, and as he grows, training will be important for him to truly thrive in a home. Like his siblings, when he is gently touched on his backside, he naturally sits down, making the “sit” command one that should be easy for him to learn with positive, consistent guidance.

With his combination of confidence, playfulness, and attentiveness, Rush has the potential to grow into a loyal, well-mannered companion. In a home that values training, structure, and engagement, he is sure to flourish and become a devoted lifelong friend.
