Parker’s got a puppy’s spark and a sweet streak that just needs the right person to help it shine. This young, large mixed-breed boy (Carolina Dog/Akita) wasn’t shown much attention in his old life, but he’s startled everyone with how quickly he picks things up. Parker wants to be good, loves praise, and will do anything for treats—training with him feels more like a game. He’s no trouble in the car, calmly walks on leash, won’t bolt for the gate, and listens well. He does great with other dogs and keeps quiet most of the time, only speaking up for some attention when he spots you nearby. Hugs and kisses are new for him, but he’s learning fast and giving them back just as eagerly. Once you meet him, you’ll see he puts everything into every outing and relishes walks, exploration, and, especially, food. At the beach, Parker proved himself a calm, polite companion, unfazed by passing people and dogs—ready for any adventure. He’d do best somewhere he’ll get real love and time to bond. Parker does well with children and loves other dogs but does not get along with cats. He’s house trained, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations. This boy has waited long enough and is overdue for one-on-one attention—he deserves a home where he’s truly seen. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
