DESCRIPTION
Some dogs wear their hearts on their sleeves, while others just need a little time. This sweet boy is still settling into shelter life and can be a bit shy, especially around the noise of barking dogs. When he's feeling unsure, he'll happily walk close behind his person, looking to them for reassurance.Once he's away from the kennel environment, his personality starts to shine. He enjoys leisurely walks, taking time to sniff and explore, and checks in with his handler often. He's housetrained, walks nicely on a loose leash, and politely ignores both people and other dogs while out and about.Toys aren't usually his thing—but hand him a shark stuffie and you'll see the cutest side of him! Watching him toss it into the air and catch it himself is guaranteed to make you smile. It's clear he's beginning to relax and come out of his shell a little more every day.This gentle, medium-energy boy would thrive with a patient adopter who will let him settle in at his own pace. Give him a little time, a quiet place to decompress, and maybe a shark toy of his own, and you'll get to watch his confidence grow into something truly special.
