Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi, I'm Kele (sometimes I go by Max)! I'm a playful, sweet little pup from Texas, now looking for my forever home here in Minnesota. I'm all about love, fun, and exploring new things. I’m hoping to find a family that has a soft spot for puppies like me—and maybe some kids to grow up with, too! I’d absolutely LOVE a home where we can go on daily walks to explore, sniff all the things, and make lots of memories together. Honestly, though, all I really want is someone who will love me half as much as I love them. I’m still learning a lot about being a good puppy—like potty training. But hey, I'm just a young pup, and it’s all about consistency, right? I’m still figuring out my potty schedule, so my humans have to take me outside right after I wake up, after meals, and about every 4 hours during the day. I get distracted easily (who doesn't?), but if you just let me wander around and sniff, I'll find the perfect spot to do my business. I’m doing great, though, and I’m super smart—I’ll get the hang of it in no time with a little patience. I’m also not quite kennel trained yet because I’ve been hanging out with my siblings in an Ex-Pen, but I’m totally ready to learn! If you put me in my kennel with my meals and some high-value treats, I’ll start to associate it with good things. A little training every day, and soon enough, I’ll be settling down in my kennel without any problems. (And if I get fussy at night, covering my kennel with a light blanket really helps!) I’m still a puppy and I’m full of energy, but I’m also super cuddly. I love to snuggle and give face licks to show you how much I care. I’m still in the chewing phase, so chew toys are a must, but with a little reminder, I remember that humans aren't chew toys! I'm doing great in the car and love to ride either in your lap or on the seat, napping the whole way. And did I mention how much I love food? Breakfast and dinner are definitely the best parts of my day! If you’re looking for a sweet, affectionate, and playful pup who will love you unconditionally and explore the world with you, I might just be the one. Let’s make some fun memories together, and I promise I’ll give you all my love in return! Can’t wait to meet you!
