Meet the fabulous Ivan! 🎉 This delightful character has seen the ups and downs of life, and yet, he emerges as a testament to resilience and love. Originally adopted from a Florida shelter, Ivan found himself returned—not due to any fault of his own, but because of superficial stigma surrounding his breed mix. Can you believe that? Let’s put our hearts together for this gentle spirit! 💖 At Dogs Playing for Life's Canine Center in Florida, Ivan has been turning heads and winning hearts through the Triple E Program. He’s a star pupil who has learned all sorts of impressive skills, from sitting like a champ to waiting patiently at open doors. He’s mastered loose-leash walking, making strolls feel like a walk in the park—literally! 🌳 While Ivan sees life as a grand adventure, he does have a preference for friends! He’s dog-selective, meaning he thrives when playing with energetic pooches who can match his rough-and-rowdy spirit. With the amazing help of thoughtful introductions, he’s made plenty of canine buddies. Our team would be overjoyed to arrange a meet-and-greet to ensure he finds just the right companion if there’s already a furry friend in your home! 🐾 But wait, there’s more! This lovable boy is not just a bundle of playful energy; he is also affectionate, engaged, and ready to form a deep bond with a loving human. His ideal adopter will look beyond labels—because Ivan is so much more than what meets the eye! He is loyal, intelligent, and bursting with love for someone special who truly sees him. 💕 To sweeten the deal, Ivan’s new family will receive his full training report and video documentation, along with complimentary post-adoption support from DPFL’s expert behavior team. It’s like having a support crew for life! So if you’re ready to change the life of a magnificent pup, don’t just sit there! Apply to adopt Ivan through the Buddy App today! This is your chance to make an incredible connection with a truly extraordinary dog! 🦮✨
