Parkhurst is a 34 lb. neutered male mixed breed, approximately 2 years old. This sweet boy requires a bit of reassurance when meeting new people, but he quickly shows his affectionate nature once he feels safe. At first, he was a bit timid in the yard, preferring to stay close for pets. With time, he gained confidence, exploring the area while taking care of his business. He has a big enthusiasm for treats and is learning to take them gently, already knowing how to sit. His eagerness for belly rubs outweighs his interest in toys; he happily flops onto his back, inviting affection with wiggly legs and flailing paws. After some playfulness, Parkhurst settles down quietly by your side. He walks well on a leash, showing minimal pulling while checking in for reassurance along the way. Parkhurst is gentle and tends to be loving, thriving on affection and support from his humans. He appears non-reactive to nearby dogs, suggesting he could coexist with a compatible fur sibling after proper introductions. Parkhurst is a great companion for someone willing to provide him time to build confidence and learn to relax. To meet him, visit Detroit Animal Care and Control in Detroit, MI.
