🐾 Meet Soren 🐾 Soren is a big, handsome boy with an even bigger personality! This energetic pup is always ready for his next adventure—whether it’s a long walk, a hike, or just some good old-fashioned playtime. He’s looking for an active home that can keep up with his zest for life and help him burn off all that happy energy 💙 Because of his size and enthusiasm, Soren would do best in a home with older kids who can handle his playful nature. He’s a strong, fun-loving dog who just needs the right environment to thrive. Soren will also require a dog meet-and-greet to make sure he and any potential canine siblings are a good match. If you’re looking for a loyal, active companion to join you on all your adventures, Soren might just be your perfect match!
