My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Bert, an older pup with a heart full of love. His energy is infectious, his curiosity endearing. He`s the type of dog that will turn any ordinary day into an adventure. His favorite activities are agility, running, and walks. He`s always ready to play, his excitement palpable at the sight of a new toy or a game of fetch. Yet, Bert also loves a good cuddle. He`s the perfect lap dog weighing a mere 40 pounds, his affectionate nature shining through with every wag of his tail. Despite his past, Bert remains incredibly friendly, always eager to meet new people and make friends. He may be a little jumpy, but that`s just his intense personality shining through. He`s a dog who loves life, and he`s ready to share that love with a family of his own. He`ll need some help with leash walking and house training and he`s eager to learn. Bert is always eager to make new friends, especially with other dogs whom he finds fascinating. However, his rough playful nature can sometimes be a bit too much for our feline friends. We haven`t seen him interact with children yet but his activity level might be a bit much for little ones. Adopt Bert, and let his sweet, playful spirit bring a touch of joy to your everyday life.
