My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Looking for a dog with loads of personality and a heart full of joy? Meet Striker-he's the playful, fun-loving pup you've been searching for! Whether he's bounding around the backyard or curled up on the couch, Striker is always ready for a good time. He loves playing with his foster sister, often crouching down to give her his best "hunter" stare before pouncing on her with all the enthusiasm in the world. Even if she's not in the mood (her loss!), Striker just laughs it off and runs off to try again. His infectious energy will keep you smiling all day long!

When playtime is over, Striker is all about the cuddles. He's the ultimate snuggle buddy, happily draping himself across your lap and letting you know if you've stopped petting him (with a little grunt to ask for more). Well-mannered and house-trained, he's perfectly content to roam freely around the house when you're gone. And when it's time for his nightly walk, Striker knows exactly when it's time to go and will patiently wait by the door if you're running a bit behind.

Striker's favorite pastime? A mini tennis ball! He'll happily entertain himself for hours with a good game of solo fetch. If you're looking for a dog who brings equal parts fun, affection, and playfulness to every moment, Striker is your guy. He's ready to bring joy, laughter, and endless cuddles into your home. Come meet him and see why Striker is the perfect addition to your family!
