About David

Meet David, the delightful little companion who's proving that great things come in small packages. At just 10 months old, this young male mixed breed is a happy, playful bundle of joy. He loves to explore the outdoors, especially with his sister, OPH Lisa. Together, they make quite the dynamic duo, racing around the yard and sharing toys, although David tends to let Lisa win most of the time, showing his affectionate side as he rushes back to his foster mom for cuddles. Once his puppy energy has been spent, David is content to snuggle up beside you or curl at your feet. He greets his foster mom with excitement but transitions to calm quickly. David walks well on a leash but may be a bit wary of wheelchairs and baby carriages. In a home without young children, he will thrive, especially with assurance that the world around him is a safe and welcoming place. David is making excellent progress with his house training, having no accidents inside. His nights are peaceful, enjoying quiet sleep in his crate. With a personality that balances playfulness with affection, David is looking for a loving home ready to embrace his sweet nature. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
