About Muppet

Meet Muppet! If you've been searching for a loyal sidekick, adventure buddy, and full-time best friend, Muppet might just be the one for you! At approximately 1 year old and weighing around 60 pounds, Muppet is a handsome pup with a personality as vibrant as his enthusiasm for life. He’s incredibly curious and wants to be involved in everything you do, from yard work to simply relaxing at home. Muppet is a lovable goofball who is still learning his manners. He can get excited and jump up for attention, so he would thrive in a home committed to continuing his training. Muppet enjoys an active lifestyle and would love a family that can provide plenty of walks, hikes, playtime, and mental stimulation. He’s a water enthusiast and might even excel in dog sports! Muppet absolutely loves other dogs and would enjoy a playful canine companion, especially one close to his size. He's social, playful, and handles corrections well from other dogs. He currently lives successfully with a cat and does well with dog-savvy felines. Muppet is mostly house-trained and continues to improve daily. He walks nicely on leash once he settles down, has no food aggression, and happily uses his crate. Like many young dogs, he can be mischievous if left unsupervised and still enjoys chewing, so supervision and appropriate chew toys are important. His foster family describes him as incredibly affectionate, eager to please, and always ready for the next adventure. Muppet is looking for a family willing to help him continue growing into the amazing dog he's already becoming.
