Dunkin - Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Gulfport, Mississippi

** This is an Out Of Town listing. We transport to the city on this listing. Please apply at www.bit.ly/mu-adopt **

Meet Dunkin! (Yes, he runs on energy... and love.)

Shepherd-type dogs are brilliant and loyal pups. They thrive when they have daily exercise, mental stimulation, weekly adventures, and a human who enjoys an engaged, enthusiastic companion. Without that? They get bored. And bored shepherds invent their own fun. ;)

Dunkin is a really good-natured, happy-go-lucky boy. He loves making dog friends, especially ones who appreciate a good wrestling match and zoomie session. Playtime is his love language. He'd do well with kids who are excited about having a playful, energetic buddy to throw balls, explore trails, and burn off steam with.

This young lad has done amazing out on the town, making friends wherever he goes. He'll be a great companion ready to accompany you anywhere. Dunkin needs a family willing to invest time into training, but he's quite treat-motivated and eager to learn. With consistency and positive reinforcement, hes going to blossom into the BEST boy. Shepherds bond deeply with their people, and once you're his, you're his for life.

Hiking partner? Yes.
Camping sidekick? Absolutely.
Early morning jog buddy? He's lacing up already.

So what do you think? Is Dunkin the amazing, adventure-loving best friend you didn't know you were missing? If you're ready for loyalty, laughter, and a whole lot of tail wags, apply to adopt Dunkin at the link below.

LOCATION & TRANSPORT:

This dog is currently in South Mississippi. Local and out-of-town adopters are welcome. For out of town adopters, we offer virtual meet-and-greets and can arrange transport to many states in the Northeast. (The $300 adoption fee includes transport to the city on this listing. Our transports run every 2-3 weeks to that location.) We cannot adopt to Rhode Island due to import restrictions.

VETTING:

All of our dogs are cleared by a licensed veterinarian for transport and arrive to their adopters spayed/neutered with age-appropriate vaccines completed and are microchipped. Note: We cannot guarantee full grown size or breed mix. Both are guesses based on physical characteristics and any known history.
