Cosmo Starlight

Cosmo is the kind of puppy who makes every room feel a little brighter just by being in it.

At almost 3 months old, he is pure curiosity wrapped in soft, adorable puppy energy. Cosmo approaches the world like its all brand new (because to him, it is), and he wants to investigate absolutely everything. If something moves, hes there. If something is quiet, hes checking it out. If you're doing something, hes definitely involved whether you invited him or not.

This little guy is a happy, social sweetheart who is thriving in his foster home with other puppies. He absolutely loves having friends around and spends his days bouncing between play sessions, wrestling matches, and I'm not tired yet! zoomies. He's playful in that classic puppy way wobbly, enthusiastic, and completely committed to having fun even when hes clearly about to fall asleep mid-play.

Cosmo is also very affectionate in his own busy little way. Between bursts of energy, hell happily come in for quick snuggles, check in for reassurance, or flop down right where you are because that seems like the best place to rest for exactly 12 seconds before hes off again. He doesn't do anything halfway he plays hard, loves hard, and naps hard.

He is especially interested in what everyone else is doing. If another puppy has a toy, Cosmo wants to know about it. If someone is wrestling, Cosmo is suddenly part of the situation. If a human is nearby, Cosmo assumes he is included in whatever is happening. Hes social, confident in a puppy way, and always eager to be part of the action.

Because hes still so young, Cosmo is just beginning to learn the basics of life in a homepotty training, manners, and all the important how to be a great family dog skills. Hes smart, food-motivated, and very eager to please, which makes him a great little student in the making. With consistency, patience, and love, hes going to grow into an incredible companion.

Cosmo would do well in a home that understands puppy energy comes in wavesbig bursts of chaos followed by sudden naps in the most inconvenient (and adorable) places. He'd likely thrive with another playful dog or active household that can keep up with his joyful personality and help guide him as he grows.

If you're looking for a puppy who is silly, social, endlessly entertaining, and full of heart, Cosmo is ready to orbit straight into your life. He may be small now, but his personality is already larger than life and hes just getting started. https://adopt.animalsfirst.com/animal/62cc8e128b02916730334440/69d3d8f2307916c7fc04ba47
