Black Jack

My story

I’m Blackjack, a goofy, energetic pup with a heart as big as my personality. I’m looking for an active and loving forever home where I can thrive with structure, guidance, and plenty of playtime. If you’re an adventurer who loves the outdoors and are ready to help me be the best pup ever, we might be the perfect match! The Basics: I must have a medium or large dog sibling who loves to wrestle and play as much as I do. I’m happiest when I have a four-legged buddy to keep me company and help burn off my boundless energy. I love other dogs, but neutered males or females work best—unaltered males aren’t my jam. My size and enthusiasm might be a bit much for toddlers, but I’m great with people of all ages. I also get along with cats—I’m curious and playful, but I don’t get aggressive with them. My Personality: I’m a sweet and goofy guy who loves nothing more than to be by your side. From helping you cook in the Kitchen (I only wanna taste) to supervising shower time! I’m a true velcro pup who thrives on companionship and affection—I’ll even give you real hugs! After a day of play, I’m all about snuggles and hanging out with my family. I’m also a bit of a rascal who loves to explore, dig, and find new treasures (snacks left on the counter are fair game though my foster mom is working with me so I only eat the treats I am given). My big, goofy energy will keep you laughing every day. Kennel Life & Training: I’m kennel trained and settle in after a little while, but I do have some separation anxiety. I might cry at first and have accidents in my kennel if I’m feeling stressed—especially if it’s not solid-sided. I’ll need a loving but firm owner who can provide structure and patience while helping me learn and grow. I already know commands like Sit, Kennel, and Down, and I’m working on leash manners and not jumping. With consistent training, I have been improving and I’ll continue to improve! Other Fun Facts: I love to wrestle and run—it’s my absolute favorite thing to do! Digging and stealing yard decor is another one of my hobbies, so I’ll need some supervision in the yard. If you’re looking for a playful, affectionate, and slightly mischievous pup who will fill your home with love and laughter, I’m your guy. I’ll thrive in a home with a loving but firm owner and a dog sibling who’s ready for lots of wrestling matches and adventures. Let’s meet soon—I can’t wait to start our journey together!
