PICKLES is kind of a big dill! Cool as a cucumber and full of puppy charm, this confident, easygoing boy is taking puppyhood in stride. He barrels into every situation with ease and comfort. New environments, new people, new dogs are no problem!

If there’s one thing you should know about PICKLES, it’s that he knows how cute he is! PICKLES can be a bit bossy about what he wants, and will sometimes nip or become vocal about his opinions! He responds well to being redirected to a toy. PICKLES is quite smart, mastering his potty training and even learning some commands like sit, lie down and his newest: paw! In the crate, PICKLES may put up a fuss for a few minutes, but then he leans into the coziness soon after.

PICKLES is affectionate and cuddly, once he’s had the opportunity for zoomies or playtime. He lives with his foster’s resident dog and really enjoys his company while also respecting the older dog’s boundaries! A home with another dog to play with and learn from could be a great fit for PICKLES. He loves being around his foster family, even following them from room to room to keep a close eye on what they are up to and if any treats are involved! PICKLES loves all people, so a busy household or neighbourhood should be no issue for this young scruff...as long as cuddles are involved!

PICKLES is bringing his good manners and love of treats... can you bring the patience, guidance, and commitment to the puppy work ahead? If you’re ready to help this cool cucumber keep learning, apply to adopt PICKLES today!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. 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.
