Story
(DOB 08/01/2023) Berkley, the handsome heart throb of the dog world! This GSD mix is growing up into a total stunner—his shiny, silky coat and those perky ears are just the beginning! Not to mention, his smile is enough to melt anyone’s heart. Berkley is an active young guy who’s all about daily walks, playtime, and fun adventures with his family. Whether it’s running around the yard, hiking through the trails, or playing fetch, he’s ready to make every day an adventure. This sweet boy is just looking for the right family to take him home and give him all the love he deserves. If you’re looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion to share your active lifestyle and your heart with, Berkley is your guy! ! He’s a little on the submissive side, which just means he’s extra eager to please and will melt your heart with his gentle nature. Berkley is the ultimate toy sharer, and he LOVES playtime—whether it’s chasing tennis balls, showing off his best victory strut with one proudly in his mouth, or sharing a good game of tug-of-war. While a fenced yard would be a dream come true for him to run around and burn off some energy, it's not a deal-breaker. Berkley just loves to move, and he’s perfectly content with daily walks, where he can stretch his legs, explore the world, and meet new friends (human and dog alike).  He’s a big boy, with big ears, with an even bigger heart, and who just LOVES being with his people. Whether you’re chilling on the couch, playing in the yard, or out on a fun adventure, Berkley is your ride-or-die sidekick! Berkley would do best in a home with older children who can keep up with his playful spirit. His foster 2-legged brother has already taught him some basic commands . Berkley is also house and crate trained, which means he’s already got some solid house manners in place.   If you’re looking for a sweet, playful companion who will bring joy and energy to your daily life, Berkley is ready to be your new best friend. Come meet this charming guy—he’s ready to run, play, and make every day an adventure with you! As part of Berkley’s $325 adoption fee, he is neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.  If you have questions about this sweet little boy, you can email  Dogteam@pawsforlifenc.org.  If you wish to adopt Berkely, you can fill in an online application for him under the Adopt a Pet Tab on our website:  www.pawsforlifenc.org. ##1887422##
