This sweet 4‑month‑old Goldendoodle mix is a playful, affectionate puppy who loves cuddles, attention, and being around his people. He is mostly potty-trained and is learning quickly with gentle guidance. He walks on a harness, enjoys toys and short play sessions, and responds really well to positive reinforcement. He can be shy when meeting new people and may whimper a bit when left alone, but he warms up fast and is eager to bond. With his soft coat, loving personality, and curious, happy energy, he will make a wonderful companion for a family who can give him time, patience, and consistency as he continues to grow and learn. He’s a truly good-natured, gentle pup looking for a safe, caring home where he can thrive.

What criteria are important to you when considering an adoptive family or home for your pet?:
He would thrive in a home where he receives consistent time, attention, and gentle training, as he is still a young puppy learning potty, leash, and basic commands. An active household that can provide daily walks, playtime, and mental stimulation is ideal. He benefits from patient socialization with new people and dogs, regular grooming care, and a safe, secure environment. A family or adopter who understands his occasional separation anxiety and is willing to gradually help him feel comfortable when alone would be a great fit.
