Hunter is a classic adolescent pup: full of energy, curious about the world, and still learning how to navigate all the excitement it brings. He loves engaging with his people, especially when treats or toys are involved. While he’s still working on channeling his enthusiasm – he can get a little jumpy or mouthy when he’s overstimulated – he’s also incredibly responsive to redirection with enrichment or treats. He’s smart, quick to learn, and with a consistent routine and positive reinforcement, he’s sure to thrive.

Out on walks, Hunter shows off his more focused side. He checks in with his person, responds well to treats, and while he might pull if he catches a good scent, he can be redirected and continues on like a pro. He’s social with other dogs and has lived successfully with a larger dog in his previous home. He’d likely enjoy a confident dog buddy in his new home but would benefit from a meet-and-greet to make sure it’s a good match.

He’s a resilient pup who just needs some structure, enrichment, and a patient adopter who understands what it’s like raising a young, smart, and sensitive dog. Hunter is best suited for an active home where his physical and mental energy will be put to good use. While he can get overstimulated with too much petting, he lives for puzzles, sniffari walks, and playtime. He might do best with older kids or teens due to his exuberance, and adopters should be prepared to keep working on his manners as he grows.

If you’re ready to invest in a relationship with a dog who’s equal parts silly and sweet – and you’ve got the patience and time to guide him through puppyhood – Hunter might just be your perfect match.
