Meet This Handsome Doberman! This big, handsome guy is looking for a home where he can settle in, learn, and become the best companion he can be! With no known history, he'll need a patient adopter who can provide structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement as he adjusts to his new life. He's a strong boy who needs some help with his manners and tends to pull on leash, but he's very food motivated, which will be a big plus when it comes to training! He loves playing with toys, having fun, and, most of all, spending time with his people. Whether it's playtime or simply hanging out together, he enjoys being part of the action. He'll need to be the only dog in the home and is best suited for a household with adults and older kids who are comfortable around a large dog. If you're looking for a big, playful buddy and are ready to help him work toward his best self, this handsome Dobie might be the one for you! Ready to Adopt?
