About Miguel

Miguel is a young, enthusiastic dog ready to brighten your life. He loves cuddling but also enjoys racing around outside with a ball. His impressive fetch skills allow him to toss and catch his own ball, making playtime a solo affair if necessary. With a big heart and plenty of energy, he's eager to learn and mastered "sit" in under a day. While he's friendly and excitable, he's currently learning how to greet guests and other dogs with a calmer demeanor. This well-mannered dog was found on the street, but he clearly knows his way around a home. He's fully house trained, which means no accidents, and he comfortably sleeps downstairs for 8 to 10 hours at night without causing a fuss. Not food aggressive, he allows space during meals. Kids: Miguel is good with children but may inadvertently knock over smaller ones in his excitement, so older kids or supervision with littles would be best. Cats: He is not suitable for homes with cats. He will bark at visitors, but he’s generally quiet. Miguel would fit well into an active household looking for a trainable companion without the challenges of puppyhood. With continued training and lots of playtime, he will be a loyal and joyful addition to your family. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
