Here's what you need to know about me:

I'm an active dog! I would love to go home with a family who can help me burn off energy with exercise, playtime, and outdoor adventures.

I have special medical needs. I injured my leg and have had two surgeries to repair it. I'm still on strict exercise limitations for the next month and will need my family to be committed to my healing journey so I can continue growing into a healthy pup.

For the next month, I am unable to run, jump, or play like a "normal puppy". I need to be crated for breaks, or confined to a small room without any furniture, so I don't jump up when I shouldn't.

I need to go to an adult-only home where I will be the only pet (for now). I'm so friendly that I could easily injure myself again by getting too excited, but I'd love to have other animals around once I'm fully healed!

My friends at the shelter will continue to support me until I'm medically cleared! They told me that I have a trainer who can help my new family learn about how to support my exercise needs until I can run again, and the vets will check up on me until I'm cleared from my final post-surgery recheck.
