About Whitaker
Meet Whitaker, your future Olympic champion in snuggling and play! This 6-week-old cutie weighs in at 9 lbs, with a charming mix of German Shepherd, American English Coonhound, and American Foxhound in his DNA. Whitaker adores belly rubs and all the cuddles he can get, quickly transitioning from playful antics to blissful naps when he's spent. He sleeps soundly through the night in his pen and is making progress with wee-wee pad training, plus he's a perfect passenger in the car. He loves other dogs and is eager to be around people, but potential families should be aware of his puppy mouthing behavior; older kids who can handle that are preferred. Whitaker is searching for an experienced family who can provide guidance and keep up with his training needs. He will also require a home where someone is present most of the day. Note that due to his breed characteristics, he's not suited for homes with cats. Whitaker is microchipped, up to date with vaccinations, and will be neutered at six months. He's hanging out in Greenlawn, NY, ready to bring joy to the right family. Make sure to act fast; Whitaker will be ready for his forever home on 7/12. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
