Cashew has already lived more than most dogs twice his age. Found on the side of the road and barely clinging to life, this resilient little guy was rescued by a kind stranger and quickly placed into foster care. With some medical attention and a whole lot of love, he bounced back — and he hasn't slowed down since.
At just over a year old, Cashew is every bit the curious, energetic puppy you'd expect. He is endlessly on the move — chasing a ball, entertaining himself with a toy, or just exploring whatever catches his attention next. His foster describes him as smart and food-motivated, which makes him surprisingly easy to work with despite his high energy. He is crate trained and almost fully house trained, and he takes treats calmly right alongside other dogs.
Ideal Home
Cashew does best in a home with a fenced yard where he can burn off steam, though an equally active owner willing to commit to multiple daily walks could make it work. He gets along well with dogs though he is still learning to respect boundaries. Cashew has come so far from that roadside and has so much more ahead of him. Could that next chapter start with you? He is not a good fit for homes with cats.
Ongoing Health
Cashew is neutered and up to date on vaccinations.
Training & Support
Cashew is working on not jumping to say hi to everyone and respecting boundaries with other dogs. He is crate trained and almost fully house trained. He can be a moderate chewer and prefers not to share his food with other dogs, so he eats in his crate. He barks at dogs on the other side of the fence and when people come to deliver packages, but not without reason. He does pull on the leash but is learning.
