🐾 MY RESCUE STORY 🐾

I was rescued by kind-hearted rescuers who saw that I was living in very difficult conditions. I spent my early days confined in a tiny crate, but thanks to their compassion, I was given a second chance at life. Now I’m safe, learning what love and freedom feel like, and excited to start a bright new chapter with my forever family.

💖 MY PERSONALITY 💖

I’m a friendly boy who’s even cuter in person! While my estimated age is around 8 years old, I look and act much younger—I still have plenty of energy and love staying active. During my photoshoot, I couldn’t get enough cuddles and happily followed staff and volunteers everywhere, soaking up all the attention. Despite a rough and neglected past, my happy spirit and sparkle never faded, and I’m ready to share that joy with my forever family.

 

🐶 MY SOCIAL SKILLS 🐶

· With People: I may be a little shy at first, but treats and gentle affection help me warm up quickly! Once I feel comfortable, I’m happy to be picked up and enjoy soaking in all the love and reassurance.

· With Dogs: I enjoy greeting new dog friends, but I like to take my time before jumping into play. I’m more of an independent soul who enjoys doing my own thing, and I tend to feel most comfortable around dogs my size. I get along very well with my friends at the care facility and especially rely on my roommate buddy for comfort and confidence.

· With Cats: My reaction to cats is still a bit of a mystery, but a cat test can be arranged to help find the best fit. On walks, I glance at cats with a little curiosity, but I quickly lose interest and happily continue on my way.

 

⚡️ ENERGY LEVEL & ACTIVITY ⚡️

I have a lovely moderate energy level—I enjoy getting outside for fresh air and adventures, then happily curl up indoors for cozy snuggles and relaxation time.

 

🧠 TRAINING & HABITS 🧠

I’m learning my leash manners and, while I may pull a little at times, I do a great job following my handler’s lead overall. I can let out a bark when I’m asking for attention, but I’m generally a very quiet boy. In new environments, I may mark at first, but once I settle in, I quickly relax and show my calm, well-mannered side.

 

🏡 MY IDEAL HOME 🏡

I’m searching for a patient, loving family who can help me become the best version of myself. I’ll thrive in a home with:

• A family that will provide me with a safe haven – where I can decompress, be myself in a stable environment

• A family that understands my past and is patient with me throughout

• A family that enjoys indoor and outdoor time together

• A family that will love and cherish me forever

 

💌 SPECIAL NOTES 💌

I’m a resilient, affectionate boy who hasn’t let my past define me. While I may need a little time to settle into new environments, I warm up quickly with patience, treats, and gentle guidance. I thrive with kind humans, enjoy companionship, and will do best in a home that understands I just need a bit of time to feel safe. Once I do, I’ll reward you with loyalty, cuddles, and a happy presence by your side.
