My personality

My story

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

You haven’t felt true happiness until you’ve been greeted by Pawl’s wagging tail and bright eyes! This sweet boy is bursting with curiosity and love, always eager to explore the world around him and make new friends—whether they’re human, dog, or cat. His playful nature is balanced by a gentle, affectionate side that melts hearts wherever he goes. Pawl’s smarts and athleticism make him the perfect partner for active families, but when the day winds down, he’s more than happy to settle in for some cuddle time.

At just 3.5 months old, Pawl is already showing his potential to be an amazing companion. With his vaccinations up to date and neutered, he’s all set to join your family and start his next adventure. Whether you need a playmate for the kids or a loyal friend to greet you at the door, Pawl will be there with his wagging tail and bright eyes.
