Gary - Male
4 months old
Breed…No idea. He didn’t come with one. If cute was a breed then he’d be that But maybe Lab, Carolina, Mountain Cur, Hound
Date of Birth 5/22/25
Gary is a 16 week-old puppy looking for his forever home! At 20 lbs., he’s growing fast and has the perfect mix of playful energy and sweet charm.
A little about Gary
He’s learning basic puppy manners. He’s very food motivated and has been very easy to train
Loves his chew toys (they keep him busy while he’s teething)
Enjoys chasing after and playing with his foster dog siblings
Already sits on command like a champ
Doing great with leash walking
Crate trained and settling in well at night and for naps
Because he’s still a puppy and loves to play hard, Gary may not be the best fit for homes with very young children. He’s learning boundaries and would thrive with a family ready to continue his training and give him lots of love.
If you’re looking for a fun-loving pup who’s eager to please
