Mike is settling beautifully into his foster home, where he's learning the ropes from his Beagle mix foster brother. Despite being a young pup, Mike is surprisingly mellow. He’s not your typical wild puppy—he has a mild temperament, is super smart, and absolutely loves being part of a pack.

He eats 3 small meals a day—breakfast, lunch, and dinner—and will never say no to a treat. This little guy is food Motivated. He’s already learning tricks and manners thanks to his Beagle foster brother (he’s mastered “down” to get a treat!) and is currently working on “wait” and leash manners. Mike is: Dog-friendly Cat-approved Kid-loving Cuddly, smart, and eager to please He also has an adorable habit of walking *through your legs* for bum rubs versus jumping on you for attention when you come home. Mike would make a fantastic addition to any home, especially one looking for a playful yet gentle companion who learns fast and loves hard.
