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. When corrected, Dutch responds appropriately and will roll over in submission. 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 kids of all ages. He enjoys being with his people and would likely love going on walks and adventures with his future family. Dutch is a sweet, easygoing pup who 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 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! Due to his playful energy, 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.

Training & Support
Dutch is eager to learn and highly trainable, though he can be a bit stubborn at times with house training. Consistency and patience will help him continue making progress. He occasionally needs gentle correction during play with other dogs, but he responds well. He sleeps in a crate at night, usually settling down after a few minutes of protest.
