Introducing the heartwarming Teriyaki! 🥢 This gentle soul hails from a bustling Texas shelter, where he was initially quiet and unsure, but has blossomed magnificently in foster care. You see, within this rugged exterior beats a heart full of love, loyalty, and a sprinkle of humor as he learns that safety is his new best friend.

Now, let’s talk about adventure! 🚶‍♂️ Leash training is underway; while Teriyaki might resemble a powerhouse (seriously, he’s as strong as an ox), he's got a playful spirit that loves to chase after deer—those critters really get him going! 🦌 But don't worry, he's making steady progress with all the calm praise he receives. It turns out, this sweet boy prefers your kind words over treats every time! - Affectionate, loyal, and oh-so-soulful! - Forms deep bonds, especially with those tender-hearted humans 💞 - Strong prey drive—he’s looking for a confident handler to guide him! - Values praise over tempting treats, every single time! - Loves to snuggle up, drifting off into dreamland next to his favorite human. 💤 - Transport available; paid transport can be arranged with costs between $200 and $400.
