Woody - German Shepherd Dog and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

Looking for a puppy with a big personality, an even bigger heart, and plenty of laughs to share? Meet Woody!

This adorable 10-week-old mixed breed puppy is equal parts cuddle bug, playmate, and comedian. Woody loves being close to his people, wrestling with his siblings, carrying toys around, and making sure he never misses out on the fun. If someone else is getting attention, he'll politely let you know that it's his turn for cuddles too!

Woody has a wonderfully expressive personality that keeps everyone smiling. He isn't shy about asking for affection, and his curious, mischievous side occasionally leads to a few "alleged" puppy crimes involving things he probably shouldn't chew. His playful antics are always balanced by a sweet, loving nature that makes it impossible to stay mad for long.

Woody settled into foster life quickly and has blossomed with routine, playtime, and lots of love. He is crate trained and does well resting in his crate when needed. He is also making great progress with house training and already understands how to use pee pads. Woody gets along well with other dogs, has done well with young children, and would likely enjoy a home where he has plenty of companionship and opportunities to play.

Named after the lovable character from Cheers, Woody lives up to his name with his friendly, charming personality. He has moderate to high puppy energy, so he will enjoy regular playtime, enrichment, and adventures as he grows. When the fun is over, he's more than happy to curl up for snuggles and recharge.

Woody is looking for a family that will embrace his playful curiosity, appreciate his expressive nature, and give him all the love and attention his big heart deserves. If you're ready for a loyal best friend who will keep you laughing, cuddling, and smiling every day, Woody is ready to meet you!

These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
