Meet Adrian, a sweet boy with a lot of character in need of a new loving family! Adrian is a bit of a complex pup with some unique challenges that he’s hoping an experienced and patient home can help him overcome! But when he’s had the chance to settle in and gets the physical and mental enrichment he needs, he turns into a super sweet cuddlebug with a penchant for fetch!
Adrian can have a bit of “stranger danger” and reactivity when meeting new people, so it’s best to go slow when meeting him for the first time and advocate for his needs when out on an adventure. He can also get very easily over-excited; helping him learn how to self-regulate while avoiding what escalates his jumpiness and strong-pulling will be important! However, Adrian has shown that shelter life is not the life for him as he’s a much more relaxed, cuddly boy when he’s in a foster home! Just be sure that you’re able to have regular training, playtime, and walks as a part of your routine as he is still an active boy.
While he may be a work in progress, there’s a lot of good qualities in Adrian that are just waiting for their chance to shine through! It’s just a matter of finding the right family to help him be the canine companion he is meant to be. Will you be Adrian’s new forever?
