Guardian is a happy, people-loving guy who’s always excited to get out and explore! He’s easy to leash up, walks out of his kennel with a wagging tail, and happily nudges your hand for more pets if you stop. He enjoys chasing a ball, exploring the yard, and checking out the world around him. Guardian shows friendly curiosity toward other dogs and people (including kids), staying relaxed even when others are noisy. He’s still working on his manners — he can pull on leash, gets a little jumpy when excited, and may mouth at clothing — but he responds to verbal cues and is eager to learn. With some basic training and consistency, this affectionate, enthusiastic boy will make a fun and devoted companion. MH
