Rookie's Story

Meet Rookie—the sweet, goofy guy who’s still learning the ropes. He’s got a couple of basics down, like “sit” and “lay,” but most of the time he’s fueled by pure puppy energy. Rookie can get a little overexcited, but with a peanut butter Kong or other brain games, he’ll settle down like a pro. That being said--He would do best in a home with high school aged kids and up.<br/><br/>He’s a toy enthusiast through and through and loves playing with other dogs. That said, his excitement level can be… well, Olympic, so he’ll need slow introductions at home and plenty of breaks to keep the fun rolling.<br/><br/>If you’re ready to bring home a lovable work-in-progress who will keep you laughing, Rookie is ready to join your team and learn all the plays that make a good boy great.
