Karhu's Story

Hi there! I’m Karhu, your future best friend and professional fun enthusiast! 🐾<br/><br/>I was born around 10/18/2025, and I’m a handsome little Terrier guy who’s expected to be about 20 pounds when I’m all grown up—basically the perfect “take me everywhere” size! I’m fully vaccinated, not yet neutered, and ready to start my next big adventure… hopefully with you!<br/><br/>I’m part of the “Milestone litter” and was previously adopted, but I’ve made my way back and I’m ready for my true forever home this time. Sometimes life takes a few twists and turns, but I’m keeping my tail wagging and my heart wide open. <br/><br/>Let me tell you what makes me special:<br/><br/>I am EXTREMELY cuddly. Like, if cuddling were an Olympic sport, I’d bring home the gold. I’m also extremely affectionate and extremely playful—yes, I bring big energy in a small package! I’m very energetic and love to play, especially with other dogs. That’s actually my favorite thing to do! With proper introductions, I’m great with other pups and I really thrive with companions—doggy and human alike.<br/><br/>I’m very social, love people, and do great with kids. Public outings? Yes please! Car rides? Buckle me up! I enjoy being part of the action, but I also have a moderately independent side—I can entertain myself when needed. I have a touch of mild anxiety, but with love, routine, and reassurance, I do just fine.<br/><br/>I’m almost fully potty trained (go me!) and I don’t need a crate. I’m still pretty new to leash training, so I’ll need someone patient to help me learn my walking manners. Think of it as a bonding opportunity—we can learn together!<br/><br/>My dream home would have a yard where I can lounge outside (I love laying out there!) and a family—whether that’s humans, dog siblings, or both—who want an active, playful, sweet companion to share life with. If you’re looking for a friendly, fun-loving Terrier who will shower you with kisses and keep you smiling, I might just be your guy.<br/><br/>So… what do you say? Ready to paws what you’re doing and meet me? My adoption fee is $450, which includes my spay, microchip, and vaccinations. Apply to adopt me at www.thecantufoundation.orG
