Meet Erling

He’s 4 months old, 21 lbs, and the sweetest Shepherd mix who is proving to be the BEST little sidekick. He’s equal parts sweet, silly, cuddly…and full of puppy energy. Erling’s favorite part of the day is his morning walk in the park after school drop off, followed closely by backyard hangs, treat filled training sessions, and snoozing belly up like he works hard to pay the bills. He LOVES kids (his foster siblings are 9 & 11!), plays great with dogs his and has been doing amazing on leash. He’s also already working on stay, still, paw, come and lay down. His foster mom says one of the cutest things about him is just how attached he gets. Erling is a total little shadow who wants to be wherever his people are! He’s still very much a puppy, so he’s continuing to work on his manners, crate training, outdoor potty routine and sharing around food, and he’s already made SO much progress. He would love a family excited to keep showing him the ropes as he grows up! For one reason or another his adoption prospects never became finalized.. His dream home? Lots of love, people to follow around, adventures, playtime, and bonus points for somewhere he can lounge on the deck after his morning zoomies.
