Meet Mushroom, a delightful pup with a heart full of joy. Known for his even temperament, Mushroom is the epitome of sweetness and playfulness. He's a smart pup who loves his toys and enjoys playful moments with anyone willing to engage. Although a bit shy, Mushroom quickly warms up to new friends, showing his gentle and friendly nature. He loves playing with other dogs and has thoroughly enjoyed all the playdates he's had while in foster.  Being just puppies, they will have so much to learn! They'll need house training, crate training and will need to learn to walk on a leash.
