About Rascal

Rascal isn’t shy about making an entrance—he’ll catch your eye charging across the yard or draped in a patch of sunlight, clearly in his element. At three years old, Rascal is energetic and quick-witted, always ready for a little play or a sunbath. He approaches the world with a mix of curiosity and caution, needing a bit of patience and some treats to warm up, but once you’re in, you’re in. He takes pride in showing off the basics—sit and stay are his go-tos—and he blooms into a lively, tail-wagging sidekick once trust is built. Rascal is a classic sun-chaser: after chasing a ball or a good walk, he’ll choose napping in a warm spot over most things. He needs a handler with dog experience who can give him structure, clear boundaries, and time to adjust. Other animals aren’t his thing; Rascal does his best as the only pet. Give him consistency and calm, and he’ll repay you with steadfast loyalty and big wins for both of you. If you’re seeking a one-of-a-kind companion and know your way around sensitive, high-energy dogs, Rascal’s looking for exactly you. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
