About Drakey

Meet Drakey, a lovable low-riding meatball with a big personality. At 4 years and 5 months old, he strikes the perfect balance between a goofy companion and a wise old soul. He has opinions about everything, from his walking route to dinner times, and his zoomies can turn your living room into a racetrack before he flops down like a beached seal. Drakey is house-trained, crate-trained, and even muzzle-trained for vet visits—he’s a playful guy who thrives in the company of confident, tolerant dogs. However, he can also rule the roost as your one and only pet. Best suited for homes with kids aged 12 and up, Drakey's enthusiastic snuggles feel more like full-body tackles than a gentle lean.
