Meet the delightful Pokey, a spirited boy with a heart full of joy! 🎉 He thrives on playful adventures, whether it's frolicking with toys or making new friends (canine or human alike). Now, don’t be fooled—while Pokey’s enthusiasm shines bright, his puppy energy can sometimes make him a little overwhelming for some dogs. 🌟 But fear not! Pokey is a master at reading body language. He understands his furry friends and knows when to settle down, making him a great companion for the right dog—a social, tolerant pal who enjoys a good romp! 🐕 Before you both move in together, he will need to meet any resident pup to ensure a cozy friendship blooms—this is a must! 🏠✨ Pokey is still polishing his leash-walking skills. He’s a strong boy, which means he would thrive best with someone who has some experience with strong dogs and positive reinforcement techniques. 😊 With the right guidance, he’ll learn not just to walk nicely but also how to connect with humans in a more gentle way than jumping up for their attention. Think of him as your lovable, energetic partner in crime who is just looking to bond! Kids? Pokey is ready for them! He loves to play and has a gentle spirit—he just needs to meet any kiddos aged 12 and up before officially moving in. Plus, he’s not the type to guard his food; he simply devours it like the enthusiastic champ he is, especially when using fun slow feeders! 🍽️💨 With a buzzing activity level, Pokey is basically an Olympic athlete in the making! 🏅 He delights in outdoor escapades and unearthing new treasures to explore. To keep this curious guy engaged and help manage his over-arousal, a patient human with an active lifestyle is exactly what he needs—someone who can sprinkle in lots of exercise, mental enrichment, and, of course, a few fun food puzzles here and there! 🧩🏃‍♂️ Pokey shows potential for lots of learning and bonding through positive reinforcement, and he’s eager to show off all the new tricks he can master! Why not become his partner in this thrilling journey? If you think that you could provide a loving, structured, and fun environment for Pokey, remember: he’s all set for a lifelong adventure. 🥳✨ Apply to adopt Pokey through the Buddy App today and let the fun begin!
