Meet the delightful CJ! 🎉 This sweet, sensitive, and fun-loving boy is ready to sprinkle joy, adventure, and a boatload of cuddles into your life! Imagine having a furry buddy who is crate and housetrained, and who thrives in an active, patient family environment. CJ is on a journey to build confidence, and he’s eager to be included in your daily escapades. CJ’s favorite pastimes include zooming around the house in a high-speed chase with his beloved stuffies, happily gnawing on chew toys, and taking his role as the vigilant neighborhood watch from the front door. If you’re at home working, don’t be surprised if he tries to squeeze into your lap—he'll remind you that a cuddle break is necessary! 🥰 When meeting new faces, CJ is a joyful greeter, though he sometimes struggles to contain his excitement—polite hellos are a work in progress! The good news? This furball is very food motivated! He’s gentle when accepting treats, which makes training a breeze. To make his days even more enjoyable, CJ takes a daily anxiety medication as part of his morning routine, ensuring he’s ready to take on the world! Adventurers, rejoice! CJ is ready to tag along on your escapades! He’s been an excellent car companion, even traveling to Maine for a family vacation where he snoozed peacefully in his crate. This curious lad dreams of a yard where he can run, sniff, and explore to his heart’s content. He’ll thrive in a household that enjoys walks, hikes, and splashing around in the delightful waters of the Eno River. While CJ is still learning about his canine peers, he tends to get a bit overeager on walks. Slow introductions with dogs that enjoy a playful romp would suit him best. At home, CJ’s playful personality shines bright! He might occasionally “borrow” soft items like stuffies, shoes, or even your favorite clothing (uh-oh!). Because of his playful nature and size, a household with adults or kids aged 8 and up would be ideal. And when the day winds down, sweet CJ transforms into a total cuddle bug. His favorite spot? Right next to you on the couch, his head resting in your lap as he drifts off into dreamland. At bedtime, he settles easily and sleeps through the night peacefully in his crate. If you're in search of a loyal sidekick who loves to play, explore, and snuggle at night, CJ may just be the perfect match for you! Don’t wait—this charming boy is waiting for his forever family. *Make sure to apply through the Buddy App* for a chance to welcome CJ into your loving home! ❤️
