About Puka

Puka is a funny, playful, and affectionate adult dog who's a gentle giant with a whole lot of love to give! He's friendly, smart, and loves to explore, so he'll be grateful for plenty of sniffs and adventures. Puka's history with other dogs is terrific; he's a friendly pup who's always up for a good time and would likely enjoy the company of other dogs, provided they are introduced properly. If you're looking for a hilarious and fun addition to your family, Puka is the one for you!
