Navajo is a sweet, affectionate, and easygoing pup who brings the perfect balance of playful energy and relaxed companionship. He's the kind of dog who's just as happy joining you for a daily walk as he is curling up nearby for a cozy evening at home. He adores toys and will often greet you at the door proudly carrying his favorite stuffed animal. He's also a champion cuddler who loves being close to his people. Navajo is an excellent car rider, great at the vet, has no issues with stairs, and loves cozy, unusual nap spots like laundry baskets or even bathtubs!
Ideal Home
Navajo would thrive in a stable, moderately active home that enjoys daily walks, occasional outings, and lots of affection. He doesn't need an ultra-active lifestyle – just consistent exercise, love, and companionship. He could do well as an only dog or with a compatible canine friend. Navajo would do best in a cat-free home.
Ongoing Health
Navajo needed dental work and had several damaged teeth removed, including his canines. His remaining teeth are healthy, and he still happily chews his favorite bones without any trouble.
Training & Support
Navajo is polite and non-reactive on leash and can walk past dogs and squirrels without fuss, though he may pull a little at the start of walks when he's excited. He is fully house-trained and crate-trained, and can be left loose in the house when you're away without signs of separation anxiety. Navajo enjoys playing with other dogs and especially likes one-on-one or small group play rather than big, chaotic packs. He usually reads social cues well, though occasionally he may need gentle redirection if he gets a little too excited. He has shown no resource guarding with food, treats, toys, or people.
