DESCRIPTION
Meet Forrest -- a sweet, social, and energetic young dog with a very puppy-like personality. 🐾✨
Forrest came in as a stray with Bubba, who has since went home. In the play yard, he was very submissive with Bubba and showed a clear interest in playing and engaging. He is friendly, outgoing, and absolutely loves toys.
He does have some puppy behaviors, including being a bit mouthy at times, but it is not done in a mean way and will benefit from continued training and redirection. On leash, Forrest is still learning and can tend to freeze or "melt," so he will need patience and consistency as he builds confidence.
With structure, guidance, and plenty of positive outlets for his energy, Forrest has all the makings of a fun, affectionate companion ready to grow into his best self. 🖤
