While he barks and might growl during introductions, he never bites. His foster emphasizes that Finn needs guidance while walking in public, as he can feel anxious surrounded by strangers. A sweet and intelligent soul, Finn thrives on mental and physical exercise, characteristic of his breed. He loves being close to people, often enjoying cozy cuddles after playtime. To adopt Finn, you’ll need a secure fenced yard, a playful dog companion, and lots of time to keep up with his energy levels.
