Meet James, a truly delightful companion who’s like that cozy mug of cocoa you never knew you needed! ☕ The kind of guy who prefers to observe before making his move, he’s not about the loud barks or flashy antics. Instead, he offers a charming presence that warms the heart—perfect for those who appreciate a sweet, goofy friend who takes his time to be comfortable. When he finally does let loose, get ready for zoomies and hilarious opinions on cuddle positions! At just 4–5 months old and weighing in around 30 lbs, this sweet Pyr/Border Collie mix has survived quite the adventure. Abandoned with his siblings, he took to the wild like a tiny rugged adventurer, but was kindly rescued just before winter’s biting chill hit. ❄️ It turns out he much prefers watching the snowflakes from inside, with snacks at the ready! James plays well with others without diving into every social situation like it’s a mosh pit. He respects personal space and appreciates well-mannered canines as companions. 🤝 Curious about cats? His stance is still “to be determined,” but you can trust he’ll approach any new situation thoughtfully—after all, that's his brand! Having hung out with a lovely 16-year-old, James reports that the experience was an excellent one! 🎉 They shared mutual respect, plenty of cuddles, and laughter. He’s the kind of pup who thrives in a calm setting while still being ready to engage when the mood strikes. With an energy level around a 5, he enjoys the best of both worlds: the exuberance of a playdate and the tranquility of lounging on the couch. As a young pup still figuring out his identity, James needs a securely fenced yard that allows him to roam freely and find his pace in the world. 🏡 Some days he’s ready for a grand adventure, and others call for a dramatic couch potato moment—because honestly, why not! He needs a family who understands to puppy-proof their home and is committed to guiding him through training and socialization. His foundation will grow him into the beloved adult everyone adores! If your heart has already skipped a beat for this gentle, slightly shy sweetheart, the next step is straightforward: apply through the Buddy App! Let’s get you started on an incredible journey with James. Fill out that adoption application and prepare to welcome this charming fella into your home! 🐾
