And he’s learning something beautiful:

People can mean love.

He’s incredibly smart (yes, he figured out how to unlock his kennel), deeply observant, and eager to learn. He already knows “sit up,” loves to retrieve, and is highly treat-motivated. But more than anything, he just wants connection.

He’s still learning that the world indoors is safe
He’s still building confidence
But he is trying—every single day

Great with kids
Good with other dogs
Housebroken
Calm, gentle, and not destructive

Loves walks, play, and simply being near you

He can be a little shy at first, startled by loud noises, and unsure on slippery floors—but give him patience, and you’ll see him bloom into something incredible.
