About Muppet

Meet Muppet!

If you've been looking for a loyal sidekick, adventure buddy, and full-time best friend, Muppet might just be your guy! At approximately 1 year old and 60 pounds, Muppet is a handsome black and brown pup who may be an Australian Kelpie or Doberman mix. Whatever his breed mix, one thing is certain: he's packed full of personality, affection, and enthusiasm for life! Muppet is the kind of dog who wants to be involved in everything you're doing. Curious doesn't even begin to describe him! Whether you're vacuuming, working in the yard, going for a walk, or just relaxing at home, Muppet wants to be right there with you. If he had his way, he'd spend 24/7 with his favorite people. This goofy boy is still very much a puppy at heart. He's affectionate, loves giving kisses, and thinks he's a lap dog despite his size. He's also a bit of a lovable goofball who is still learning his manners. Muppet can get excited, jump up for attention, and occasionally use those big paws to say hello. His foster family says Muppet is incredibly affectionate, eager to please, and always ready for the next adventure. He chases squirrels, barks at the lawn mower, and investigates absolutely everything with endless curiosity—but at the end of the day, all he really wants is to be near his people. Muppet isn't looking for a perfect family. He's looking for a family willing to help him continue growing into the amazing dog he's already becoming.

Ideal Home

Muppet would thrive with a family that can provide regular walks, hikes, playtime, and mental enrichment. He would enjoy having a playful canine companion, especially one close to his size, and he currently lives successfully with a cat.

Ongoing Health

No specific health concerns are noted in the description.

Training & Support

Muppet would do best with a family committed to continuing his training, as he can get excited, jump up for attention, and occasionally use his big paws to say hello. Like many young dogs, he can be mischievous if left unattended and still has a tendency to chew things he shouldn't, so supervision and appropriate chew toys are important.
