Meet Coach! This three-year-old pup is full of life, love, and personality. With his goofy grin and spunky spirit, Coach is always ready to brighten your day. He’s a happy, adventurous boy who loves going for walks, hopping in the car for a ride, and showing off his playful side. At home, he’s happiest lounging on the couch, sitting right next to his people, and keeping them company. Coach does well with the resident family dog and typically does best with female dogs. He can be skeptical of new dogs, so slow introductions are important to set him up for success. Coach would also thrive as a single dog - he LOVES people more than dogs.
Coach does NOT do well with cats, so he’ll need a cat-free home.
When it comes to very young children, Coach has very limited experience. The few times he’s been around young children (0-5) he was very nervous, so we recommend proceeding with caution and slow introductions if kids are in the home.
Coach is goofy, spunky, and full of love – he’s ready to be your bff!
