Meet Thomas! This sweet baby boy has all of his puppy energy in a huuugee package! He's sweet, smart, bouncy and cuddly! At just 5 months old, Thomas has time to learn and grow into a wonderful companion. In order for him to succeed he'll need plenty of physical/mental stimulation and structured training. He may even benefit from a doggy sibling. He loves being around humans and will surely win you over with his kind and loving spirit! Does Thomas sound like the pup for you? Apply for him today :)
