About Honu

Meet Honu, a lively puppy from the Hawaiian litter. He’s a mix that might surprise you with his Golden Retriever dad! With a blend of black, brindle, and a touch of white, Honu reflects a playful and happy nature. Currently in a foster home in Silvana, WA, Honu is learning the ropes of puppy life, including crate training and housebreaking. He’ll need a bit of patience as he transitions to your home, but his sweet disposition makes him an eager companion. At just 3 months old and fitting into the 15-pound range, he's likely to grow to a sizeable pooch, maybe around 60 pounds or more as an adult. Honu gets along well with cats, dogs, and children, making him a fantastic addition to almost any family. It's important to remember that puppies require consistent training and supervision, but with a little love and effort, he'll become a devoted friend for life. Honu is already neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated accordingly. Do keep in mind that he may need more shots at 16 weeks, including rabies. This little guy comes with a goody bag, including toys and essentials to help him settle in. Remember to apply first before arranging to meet him; adoption events are hosted regularly. This could be the start of something special with Honu!
