About Henry

“Hey there, I’m Henry and I can’t wait to meet you!”

Henry is a lovable, affectionate, and energetic boy with a big heart and an even bigger personality just waiting to shine. When you first meet him, he may come across as slightly timid, taking a moment to assess new people and situations, but it doesn’t take long for his true, friendly nature to come through. Once he feels comfortable, he happily seeks out connection and soaks up attention from his favourite people.

Henry knows a lot of commands, including sit, shake a paw, come, and leave it, and he is very treat-motivated, which makes him a great candidate for continued training. He walks very well on a leash and does not pull, and he is good around other dogs and really loves to play. He’s also a smart and expressive dog who sometimes decides he’d rather keep exploring than head back inside after a walk.

This super nice boy has a zest for life that’s hard to miss. He’s full of energy and enthusiasm, always ready for his next adventure – whether that’s a long walk, playtime, or learning something new. He recently got to swim in the lake and absolutely loves the water, especially when it involves playing ball. He is not aggressive and will drop the ball when told.

Because of his excitement, Henry can sometimes get a little jumpy or mouthy, especially when he’s feeling extra happy, but with continued positive reinforcement and guidance, he’s sure to channel that excitement into more polite behaviours. A patient and understanding adopter who can provide gentle, consistent training will help guide him while respecting his sensitive side.

Henry sleeps on his bed the entire night and loves to greet you once you wake up, making him a wonderful mix of playful and comforting companionship. He will do best in an active home that can match his energy level and support his confidence-building journey with reassurance, routine, and encouragement.

With the right support, Henry will continue to grow into a confident, well-rounded companion and will offer endless love, fun, and loyalty to a lucky family.
