Story
Meet Birch – A Bouncy, Brindle Best Boy in the Making!
Birch is a 6-month-old male bully mix (possibly with some American Staffordshire Terrier in the mix) who’s already stealing hearts with his caramel brindle coat, expressive eyes, and joyful spirit. Born on January 5th, 2025, Birch currently weighs about 40 pounds and is the perfect combination of playful energy and sweet snuggles.
This pup is fantastic with humans of all ages and sizes. He loves meeting new people, adores kids, and is always up for a good cuddle or play session. Birch gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a playful pup buddy. He lives by the motto "play hard, nap hard"—you’ll find him romping around one minute and snoozing like a champ the next.
Birch is crate trained and doing great with potty training, especially if his humans keep an eye out for his cues. He truly tries to be the best boy every single day. He’s also learning his leash manners and enjoys getting outside to explore the world.
Like many puppies, Birch is:
Loyal and affectionate – he forms strong bonds and loves being close to his people.
Smart and eager to learn – he picks things up quickly and enjoys working for praise or treats.
Confident and playful – always ready for fun, whether it’s with toys, humans, or other pups.
Birch is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready to find a forever home that can match his energy, continue his training, and shower him with love.
Think Birch might be your new best friend? Come meet him and fall in love!
