I’m a sweet, happy go-getter with a big heart and an even bigger wiggle butt! I absolutely love playing fetch (I even know “drop it”—how cool is that?), and my pig toy is my best friend. I take it with me everywhere, so you’ll always know where I am!

I’m an adventure dog at heart but also love my quiet time with a nice long nap after a good play session. At first, I can be a little shy, but once I warm up, I’ll be all about the affection. I’m a total people-pleaser and thrive on love and attention. If you’re looking for a sweet, balanced pup with a perfect mix of energy and calm, I could be the one for you! Let’s go on some adventures and cuddle up afterward!
