Tumnus - Hound and Boxer Dog for Adoption in Millcreek, Utah

Meet Tumnus! Tumnus is an adorable mixed-breed pup, about 8 months old who currently weighs roughly 35 pounds, who is the perfect medium-large sized Heinz 57 mix (possibly a hound, Boxer, lab with maybe a little Dachshund thrown in the mix ??) He is a curious, playful boy with medium energy who loves toys, chewing, fetch, zoomies, and playing with other dogs once he gets to know them.

He's doing well with crate training and keeps his crate clean. Tumnus is still working on potty training and will often let you know when he needs to go outside. He's also learning basic manners and commands, making this the perfect time to continue his training.

One of Tumnus's funniest quirks is that he likes to "talk" to his people--and he'll even bark at Lex Luthor on TV! He also has a playful habit of nibbling on your toes to get your attention. Tumnus would love an active family, especially one with a fenced yard where he can run and play. With a little patience as he adjusts to a new home, this sweet, goofy pup will make the most wonderful companion!
