Meet Champ! 🌟 This incredible 2-year-old, 57-pound gentle giant is not just a dog; he’s a soulful companion who knows how to wear his heart on his sleeve. ❤️ Champ is feeling a little stressed in the shelter, but once you give him a bit of space, kindness, and reassurance, his sweet personality shines through like a bright star! 🌟 When it’s time to come out of the kennel, Champ trots out at a moderate pace, tail wagging, clearly ready for adventure! While he might show a fleeting interest in the leash, just toss him a toy, and boom! 🎉 He’s mesmerized and ready to carry it along for the ride. Once outdoors, Champ is a champ at potty time! 🚽 He goes right away and shows absolutely no interest in indoor accidents - what a good boy! Champ walks fairly well on a leash, with just a little pulling now and then - nothing he can’t handle with a bit of patience. 🚶‍♂️ He hops into the car like a pro and settles down comfortably for the journey, enjoying the scenery until it’s time to jump out - just remember, a tether might be his best buddy to keep him safe and secure! 🚗 When playtime rolls around, that’s when Champ truly lights up! 🎾 He adores toys and would play fetch all day long if he could! His excitement can be infectious, but he's also incredibly smart; he knows how to sit for a toy or treat. 🍖 Just remember, treats should be offered with a flat palm, as this eager boy can get a little overzealous! 😄 If he gets a little mouthy while exploring the world, don’t worry! Champ is responsive to redirection, and his toleration for handling makes bath time a breeze. 🛁 He will melt right into relaxation under gentle care. In public, he’s a total charmer, greeting new folks with a calm and polite demeanor. After a little exploration in a home, he loves nothing more than cozying up on the couch, cherishing every close moment with his human. 🥰 As a sensitive soul, Champ would thrive best in a calm home without small children, where he can be the only dog and soak up all that one-on-one affection. He’s a devoted companion who just wants to belong and share endless love with the right person. With the right nurturing environment, he will blossom into the best friend you’ve been searching for! 🌼 So if you desire a heartwarming connection and a furry best friend, you simply *must apply through the Buddy App* to welcome Champ into your life!
