Sentry is a 6.5-month-old, male Retriever/Pit Bull mix weighing 40 pounds and expected to be a large dog when fully grown. He was rescued from the woods with his mom and siblings and has grown up in a loving foster home. Sentry is a happy, playful, and affectionate puppy who loves to cuddle, play with his siblings, and go for walks. He is also potty trained and is growing into a confident and well-rounded dog. He loves people and other dogs and has done well with children. Sentry is eager to learn and is continuing to practice his leash skills and basic obedience.
Ideal Home
We are looking for a family committed to reinforcing good manners, building Sentry's confidence, and helping him continue to mature. We prefer homes that already have another friendly, well-mannered dog to help mentor and guide Sentry. If you don't currently have a dog, we'd love to hear your plan for continued socialization, which might include structured training classes, regular playdates with trusted dogs, supervised daycare, or other safe opportunities for positive canine interaction. Because Sentry is still a young dog, we also prefer homes where someone isn't routinely away for more than four to six hours at a time.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.
