About Saturn

Saturn is a captivating little baby who came to us as an owner surrender, and he’s still figuring out this big world. Since his arrival, he’s made significant strides, though he remains timid and insecure. It’s heartening to see him learn that humans can be friendly, but he’ll need a patient family that’s ready to invest time and encouragement to build his confidence. This sweet boy thrives with dog-friendly companionship and might flourish even more with a confident canine buddy to guide him. Saturn has shown some resource guarding tendencies around food, so his future family should be attentive to feeding routines and work on instilling positive mealtime behaviors. Like any young pup, he requires a consistent approach to potty training and manners. Saturn has received 2 out of his 3 DHPP vaccinations and a microchip, with his neuter scheduled for adoption. With love and patience, Saturn has immense potential to blossom into a wonderful companion. If you're ready to help a shy puppy come out of his shell, Saturn could be the perfect addition to your family!
