Gentle Giant Dakota Seeks His Adventuring Crew! 🐾⛰

Hello there, fellow outdoor enthusiasts and dog lovers! Allow me to introduce you to the one and only Dakota. This stunning Anatolian Shepherd puppy may be tipping the scales at a stout 80 lbs already, but he's all sweet squishiness and lovable loyalty wrapped in an adorable furry package.

At just 9-10 months old, Dakota is still very much a playful pup at heart. He lives to wrestle with his four-legged pals and keep his human companions active and on their toes with endless games of fetch (or rather, you fetch!). But once he's had his fill of romping for the day, this gentle giant turns into a world-class snuggle bug, content to cuddle up with his people in the evening.

Despite his imposing size, Dakota has a heart of gold. He loves kiddos and kitties alike, though he hasn't quite figured out how to be best buds with the feline friends just yet. This good-natured goofball is already a well-mannered house guest, coming crate-trained, leash-trained, and housetrained. The world is still so new and exciting for him, and he can't wait to explore it with his forever family!

Out on walks, Dakota's favorite pastime is greeting new people and pups with that signature Anatolian charm. He's not a big barker unless offering mild-mannered warning that danger is actually nowhere to be found. This lovable genius just wants to keep his crew safe from threats like plastic bags being carried to and from the recycle bin.

Dakota bushwhacks through life with a childlike enthusiasm and insatiable appetite for adventure. He'd thrive with an active family or pair of roommates living that outdoor-centric lifestyle he craves. A house with a yard for him to sprawl out and soak up the sun between hikes, runs, or retrieving sessions is an absolute must. While Dakota adores humans of all ages, his boisterous size may be a tad overwhelming for big city living.

If you've been searching for that larger-than-life companion to roam the trails, stomp through creeks, and embrace the simple joys of just existing in nature alongside, branching out with Dakota will be your greatest adventure yet. This goofy pup can't wait to rendezvous at the trailhead with you! If Dakota is your type of pup please apply at https://www.fromforgottentoforever.com/adoptionapplication/
