North is the perfect balance of playful and relaxed—he enjoys bursts of fun with his toys, especially his ducky toys, but is just as happy being a total couch potato and cuddle buddy afterward.<br/><br/>He is also a BIG foodie (cheese is his current favorite!) which makes him highly trainable and very motivated to learn.<br/><br/><br/>⚡ Energy Level<br/>Low to moderate<br/><br/>North would be perfectly happy with one good walk a day or a fenced yard where he can explore, sunbathe, and be his curious self.<br/><br/>🏡 Ideal Home<br/>North would thrive in a moderately active home that enjoys walks, playtime, and adventures—but also appreciates a good snuggle session.
