Meet Sturdy – a sweet and lovable guy who’s ready to find his forever home!

He’s a treat-motivated boy with a lot of potential, though he may need a little help with basic commands like “sit” and working on keeping all four paws on the ground. But don’t worry—once he’s focused, he’ll pick things up quickly! His love for treats makes training fun, and with a little patience, he’ll be mastering his manners in no time.

This friendly boy is a social butterfly who absolutely loves people, though he can get a bit overwhelmed by passing dogs when out and about. He has participated in shelter playgroups, and has done well at times. He just might need some slow introductions and time to adjust, especially since he’s a big guy with a lot of energy. When outdoors, his nose is always to the ground, sniffing out all the exciting smells around him. He’s a curious and active boy who would thrive in an environment where he gets plenty of mental stimulation and enrichment. He can get a bit anxious or amped up at times, so helping him with emotional regulation and giving him plenty of chances to use his brain will be key to his happiness.

If you’re looking for a big love bug who’s also active and enjoys an adventure, this sweet boy could be the perfect match for you. He’s ready to share all his love with the right family!
