My personality

My story

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

Rex is a young, happy go lucky pup who is hoping to transition directly into a loving home.

Rex has recently been in foster care, where he has done incredibly well. He is now crate trained and house trained, and his foster has seen just how much he thrives in a home environment. Rex is dog friendly and takes cues from his canine companions very well, often mirroring calm behavior and play styles. He enjoys having another dog around and benefits from that guidance.

Rex is very sweet, playful, and full of puppy enthusiasm. He loves running around outside, chasing toys, and engaging with the world around him. Toys are a favorite pastime, and he’s always ready for playtime.

He already knows how to sit and is eager to keep learning. Rex responds well to structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement, and he continues to mature nicely.

Rex is a hound mix, and adopters should be prepared for an active, intelligent young dog who will thrive with regular exercise, training, and enrichment. With continued guidance, Rex has all the potential to grow into a wonderful companion.
