ltergeist. This handsome pup is all heart, all wiggles, and all-in when it comes to playtime, snuggles, and stealing your heart (and possibly your blanket).
Ghost is a young dog who’s coming out of his shell, and showing off more and more of his goofball personality every day. Expect daily zoomies, big silly grins (yes, he has the cutest smile when he's excited!), and the more adorable little nesting routine you've ever seen—he’ll drag his favorite blanket from his crate to build himself a cozy throne in the living room.
Ghost is absolutely obsessed with his ball and rope toys, loves a good game of fetch, and is doing really well with the “drop it” command (though sometimes his excitement gets the best of him). He’ll even lie around with a ball in his mouth, just casually chomping on it like it's his emotional support toy. He’s a super-friendly guy who wants to greet everyone he meets, and while he's still learning not to jump up to say hello, his enthusiasm is pure love! He’s curious about other dogs and eager to play, and so far has been shy when seeing cats outside—though he's never met any face to face. He’s also hilariously unbothered by wildlife—he will give a squirrel a glance, but not get phased by full-size deer.
Ghost’s ideal home is one that’s ready for love, laughter, and the occasional whirlwind of zoomies! He’d thrive with a patient, playful human (or humans, the more the merrier with this guy!) who will help him continue his training and celebrate all his goofy, lovable quirks. He might be named Ghost, but once you meet him, you'll never want him to vanish from your life!
