About ISLAND

Island is a little wonder pup who, despite being the smallest of his litter, has certainly caught up! He's an adventurous soul, always ready for fun, especially when his sister Ella is leading the way. Island is a master mimic and loves to follow Ella's lead, playfully pouncing and copying her every move. He's a bit of a sloppy second, but his enthusiasm is infectious, and he's sure to bring smiles and giggles to your days.

Island is currently the shyest of his litter, but he's gaining confidence every day. While he may need a little extra patience as he fully comes out of his shell, especially if he's the only pup in the home, his progress is remarkable. He's very attached to his sister Ella and would thrive in a home with another dog or a visiting canine friend to keep him socialized. Island is food motivated, which will make training a breeze! He's generally social and gets along well with other dogs, but has had minor scuffles when challenged by a persistently aggressive foster dog. As long as other dogs are not threatening, Island is a splendid companion. Despite their puppy curiosity, these pups are remarkably mature, peaceful, and mellow. They're even accustomed to sleeping through fireworks, showing no reaction! Island and his littermates are warm, loving, studious, and primarily people-focused. With his goofy and friendly demeanor, Island is a unique pup with a heart of gold, ready to sweep you off your paws!

Ideal Home

A home with another dog or regular dog visitors is ideal for Island's continued socialization. He would also benefit from a family that can provide him with plenty of mental and physical attention to help him mature properly.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

Island is food motivated, which will make training easier. While generally good with other dogs, he can become intolerant of persistent aggression from other dogs.
