My name is Burpee D18396!

Hello my name is Burpee and I am from Minnesota.


Hi there! My name is Burpee but lately have preferred being called Bert. I am a huge love bug and enjoy the company of my humans, I had a bit of a rough start in life and just need a lot of love. I am still a puppy and am working on learning commands but my foster parents told me I am a really smart guy though and picked up sit already! My foster parents are working with me to sit and wait for pets since I can be a little jumpy especially when I am really excited. It's going well and I improve a little with my skills everyday!

I love other dogs and would love to have a dog playmate to help get some of my puppy energy out. I'm a typical lab that loves to play fetch and explore all the great smells outside! (Who wouldn't?!) I do also love to chase squirrels, bunnies and all the outdoor critters. (I am getting better at leaving them alone while on walks.) My foster parents have a cat that I'm learning to be friends with, but I can get a little excited when I see him so I'll likely need to take things slow if my forever family has any kitty siblings for me.

I am working on crate training since I do still have some puppy tendencies and I am also getting better with this. I would much rather be close to my people so I do need some coaxing into the crate and will whine for sometime before calming down. Overnight I do well in my crate as long as my people are close by.

Overall I am a pretty great dog who just needs a lot of love and continued training because I am still a puppy. I cannot wait to find my forever family! Could that be you?
