Terk came into the world under tough circumstances—left behind with his brother, Tarzan, frightened and covered in scrapes and puncture wounds. He took his time to heal, both inside and out, and now he's a thriving, happy puppy eager for a soft spot to land. Terk loves to play in the yard, show off silly "googly eyes" for snacks, and parade his food bowl around like a trophy. He's working on basic commands (with food motivation that sometimes gets the better of him), and he’s earning points for being a calm, polite leash walker. New people might make him shy at first, but a little patience brings out his loving, goofy side. Terk’s all set for a real home—vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and ready to swap his shelter life for a family, a backyard, and a couch. If a gentle, treat-loving pup with a heartwarming story sounds right for you, Terk is waiting to start his next chapter. They are ready to love you; are you ready to apply?
