Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Plainfield, Illinois

8–9 months old • Male • Shepherd Mix • 35lbs

A playful, affectionate boy with a slightly adventurous streak, Frost is your ready-to-go sidekick. He’s got the same sweet, social energy as his bestie Mauney (also available for adoption) with a little extra main character energy for the camera.

The Highlights
• Short brownish-brindle coat with black markings along his back and a white chest patch
• Floppy ears that keep things perfectly unpolished
• Working on crate training and house training
• Affectionate and cuddly
• Playful and bouncy
• Unreasonably photogenic (he knows his angles)

Personality & Vibes
Frost is a happy, easy going gentleman. He’s playful, curious, and leans into both adventure and affection with equal enthusiasm. He’s still learning the basics, but he’s eager, engaged, and very much along for the ride.

Favorite Things
• Car rides: certified passenger prince
• Romping around the yard and soaking up the sun
• Wrestling and playing with his canine friends
• Striking a pose when the camera’s out

Social Life
• Loves other dogs, especially for play and wrestling
• Came up from Kentucky with his bestie Frost, also available for adoption!

Ideal Home
A home ready for a fun, active puppy who will continue his training and take him along for life’s adventures. He’d thrive with people who want a dog that’s equal parts playful companion and exploration co-pilot. We ask that his adoptive family have another playful dog in the home - that would make Frost so happy,
