About Evan

Hi, I'm Evan! Thanks for checking me out!

I know my cute face is hard to resist, but here's the scoop: I'll need a lot of your time and attention as I grow up into the amazing adult dog I'm destined to be! I'm looking for a forever family that will help me with socialization, training (yes, that includes house training!), and plenty of exercise. And let's not forget the chewing and teething-I'm still learning what's okay (and what's definitely not okay) to put in my mouth. So, be ready for some puppy-proofing! Don't forget those vet visits! I'll need to stay up to date on my boosters and vaccines, which means a few trips to see my favorite vet in the first few months. But trust me, all that effort will be worth it when you experience the endless love, puppy kisses, and pure joy I'll bring into your life. So, if you're up for the challenge and the fun, why not come meet me in person?

Ideal Home

A family that is ready to dedicate significant time and attention to my needs as I grow. This includes socialization, house training, and exercise. Homes should be prepared for puppy-proofing as I am still learning what is appropriate to chew on.

Ongoing Health

I will need to stay up to date on my boosters and vaccines, which will require several vet visits in the first few months. All our dogs and puppies go home spayed or neutered, microchipped, and heartworm tested (for dogs 7 months and older). They are also up to date on core vaccines, as well as heartworm, flea, and tick preventatives.

Training & Support

I will need help with socialization, training, and house training. I am still learning what is okay to chew on.
