Meet Sunny!
Sunny is a handsome 9-year-old, 70lb neutered pittie mix who brings joy everywhere he goes. He's a playful, goofy boy with a huge heart and an infectious enthusiasm for life. Whether he's giving kisses, showing off his tricks, or playing with his favorite toys, Sunny is happiest when he's spending time with his people. He has been living with a professional trainer and has an excellent foundation in obedience, knowing commands like sit, down, stay, place, and several fun movement tricks. He's fully house-trained and crate-trained, settling nicely in his kennel at night. Because he's so food motivated, he's eager to learn and enjoys continuing his training. Sunny's moderate energy level means he'd love a home that enjoys daily walks, playtime, and including him in family activities. He walks well on a loose leash, but can become excited when he sees other dogs, pulling or lunging in his eagerness to say hello. With calm guidance and redirection, he quickly refocuses. Sunny enjoys energetic play with medium and large dogs, but due to his enthusiastic play style, he'll need slow, proper introductions and continued guidance to ensure compatibility. He'd do well with a balanced, tolerant dog, but would also be perfectly happy as your one and only. Sunny loves meeting new people and greets them with excitement, though he can get mouthy when excited, so he'd do best with older, dog-savvy children (10+) who can help reinforce good manners and respect his boundaries.
