About Caleb

Caleb is an easygoing Great Pyrenees-mix puppy with much of the puppy training already under his belt. At just under four months old, he's fully potty trained, reliably whines at the door when he needs outside, and handles his business right away. Caleb is kennel trained, settling in after just a few whines, and will sleep through the night, though he's ready to start his day bright and early. He already knows how to sit and is picking up manners from his foster brother dog, adjusting his behavior when corrected. Caleb's energetic style might overwhelm a tiny dog, but he listens and learns fast. He loves fetch, wrestling with other dogs, and curling up for a nap with his people. Caleb has met many new faces—at playgrounds and pickleball courts—and greets everyone warmly. He plays gently with children, loves being around people, and rarely chews on anything he shouldn't. He enjoys his walks, though he still wanders a bit and would benefit from more leash training. Caleb is fast, playful, and generally not mouthy, but occasional reminders keep those puppy teeth in check. He’s growing quickly and has that classic “legs too big for the body” cuteness pups are known for. Cars and steps still make him a bit nervous, but a little encouragement and patience will go a long way. He’s eager for adventure, loves a comfy couch cuddle, and is looking for a family who will keep up his training and shower him with love. Caleb is in Rochester, MN. Ready to fall in love?
