About Sunny

Meet Sunny! This handsome 9-year-old, 70-pound neutered pittie mix is currently in foster care in Houston, TX, and he can be transported to his perfect family anywhere. True to his name, Sunny radiates joy, bringing a playful energy and an infectious enthusiasm for life wherever he goes. He loves to give kisses, show off his tricks, and play with his favorite toys. Life is happiest for Sunny when he's surrounded by his loved ones. Sunny has a strong foundation in obedience thanks to working with a professional trainer. He knows commands like sit, down, stay, and even some fun movement tricks. He is fully house-trained and crate-trained, settling nicely in his kennel at night for 6-8 hours. His eagerness to learn, particularly because he's highly food motivated, makes training a breeze. With a moderate energy level, Sunny would thrive in a home that enjoys daily walks and playtime. He walks well on a loose leash but can become excited around other dogs, sometimes pulling or lunging to greet them. Proper introductions and calm guidance help him refocus. While Sunny enjoys playing with medium and large dogs, he needs careful introductions since he doesn't always recognize when another dog wants to take a break. He's also good with older, dog-savvy children (ages 10 and up) who can help him practice his manners. Sunny's ideal home is with an active family or couple who will continue his training and offer him love and structure. If you're searching for a fun-loving companion with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Sunny is ready to brighten your life. Could he be the perfect addition to your family?
