Meet Dutch! Dutch is a happy, playful pup with a big personality and an even bigger heart. If there's fun to be had, Dutch is ready for it! He loves romping around with other dogs and will happily try to convince cats to join in the fun, even if they aren't quite as enthusiastic as he is. Dutch has plenty of energy and confidence when playing. He holds his own with larger dogs and loves an active play session. He can be a little persistent when playtime is over, but he responds appropriately when corrected. Dutch has also shown interest in cats and wants very badly to play with them. When they run, he chases them, and when they hiss, he barks back, hoping they'll join his game. Dutch has been wonderful with children and would likely do well with children of all ages. He hasn't had much leash experience yet, but he is eager to learn and highly trainable. He sleeps in a crate at night and loves snuggling with his favorite stuffed animal. Dutch's sweet, easygoing nature around food and people is one of his best qualities. He shows no signs of food aggression and is very food-motivated, making training easier. He loves toys, treats, and spending time with his humans. Dutch has a moderate-to-high energy level and would love a home where he can safely run and play. He adapts well to different home environments as long as he's surrounded by love. If you're looking for a loyal, playful companion who adores people, loves making friends, and is always ready for the next adventure, Dutch may be the perfect addition to your family.
Ideal Home
Dutch would thrive in a home with another playful dog who enjoys having a buddy around. A dog that prefers peace and quiet may find Dutch's enthusiasm a bit much! He may do best with dog-savvy cats who are comfortable around active puppies. A home with a yard where he can safely run and play would be ideal.
Ongoing Health

Training & Support
House training is still a work in progress and Dutch can be a bit stubborn at times. Consistency and patience will help him continue making progress. He can be a little persistent when playtime is over and doesn't always catch subtle signals that another dog is finished, but he responds appropriately when corrected.
