Meet Dennis

Meet Dennis!!! Dennis is the happy goober mix of fun and chill that every active family dreams about. This big, loving boy will keep you laughing with his playful energy, then melt right into you when it’s time to relax. Dennis absolutely loves adventures — hikes are his jam — and he’s working hard on his leash training. He’s a strong guy right now, but he’s also incredibly smart, so with consistency and a little guidance he’ll pick up his manners and basic commands quickly. When it’s playtime, Dennis is all in. Fetch with toys or tennis balls? His favorite. Zoomies in the yard? Count him in. Because of his size and enthusiasm, he’d thrive with an active family and a fenced yard where he can romp safely. Dennis isn’t much of a “play with other dogs” type — he prefers to hang out near them rather than wrestle — so he can happily be your one and only or live with a calm dog friend. He’s a big lovable goober who doesn’t always realize how large he is, so we recommend older kids for his forever home. If your perfect Sunday looks like a morning hike followed by football on the couch, Dennis is your boy. He’s loyal, goofy, affectionate, and so ready to find the family who will love him forever.
