Fumble

My story

Meet Fumble, the pup who believes that the best way to handle any situation is to watch it unfold from the comfort of a plush chair—preferably after a nap. Why rush in when you can simply observe, evaluate, and maybe throw in a paw or two when you're good and ready? He's the canine equivalent of that one friend who insists on being "fashionably late" to everything... but much more adorable, and with better nap spots. If Sherlock Holmes and a marshmallow had a baby, it would be Fumble. Fumble is a 4-month-old, 30lb Great Pyrenees mix who believes every new experience deserves careful analysis… from a distance… preferably while lounging on a soft chair with one paw dramatically draped over the armrest. He’s not here to rush into chaos like some uncultured Golden Retriever—no, sir. First, he must assess: Are you a playmate? A grumpy elder? A squirrel conspiracy theorist like foster brother Jersey? Only then will he approach—with the respectful diplomacy of a tiny, fluffy ambassador, complete with submissive puppy licks. Fumble’s been raised around the pint-sized Holy litter, which he handled like a gentle giant-in-training. He’s good with kiddos (even the sticky ones), offers strangers a thoughtful sniff before full emotional investment, and shows no interest in world domination—unlike cats, whom he hasn’t met but probably assumes are just badly designed dogs. So, if you’re looking for a polite, snuggly pup who prefers to study the world before joining in on its weirdness, Fumble’s your guy. Fumble approaches life like a professional lounge critic with a minor in investigation. He’s not about that chaotic puppy energy—his vibe falls somewhere between a slightly tired koala and a golden retriever who just finished a light yoga session. He’s got pep when it counts, but he also deeply respects the art of doing absolutely nothing on a couch. Being a naturally cautious gentleman, Fumble prefers to observe a situation before diving in—ideally from a cozy chair and after his nap. He greets new experiences with thoughtful sniffing and the occasional puppy smooch, just to let everyone know he’s here for peace, not war. Whether you’re a playful pup or a grouchy elder, he’ll treat you with the appropriate level of respect and tail wags. Leash walking? Oh yes, we’re in our “learning curve but nailing it” era. Fumble’s had three lessons so far and is picking it up like the bright, snuggle-driven boy he is. Once he realizes walks end in couch cuddles, it might just become his new favorite hobby. He’s a toy enthusiast (especially if it squeaks), a tug-of-war participant, and a sibling-ear connoisseur—hey, we all have our quirks, and for Fumble, it’s a fine appreciation for those adorable, floppy ears! As for home life? Fumble’s laid-back nature and young age make him adaptable to a variety of living situations. He’d do well with a securely fenced yard or in an apartment/home with regular leash walks—he’s cool either way, as long as it ends in couch time and love. In summary: If you're looking for a pup with the brains of a sleuth, the soul of a snuggler, and the energy of a chilled-out otter mixed with a lazy fox, Fumble is your guy. Potty Training? Well, he's almost there. If you let him out often and stick to a solid schedule, you'll get there—think of it like a very committed, but slightly forgetful, intern. He's trying his best! Fumble has mastered the art of the Great Pyrenees bark—booming, impressive, and typically reserved for Very Important Situations… like when someone else has the chew toy he clearly had his eye on first. He’s not one to narrate every passing breeze or imaginary squirrel, but he’s also not above using his voice to file a formal complaint when he feels slighted. Overall, he’s more of a strategic barker than a constant commentator—saving his vocal talents for moments that truly matter. Fumble hasn’t dipped his fluffy toes into the whole kennel scene just yet. Instead, he lounges in a thoughtfully puppy-proofed area. So far, he hasn’t tried to stage a jailbreak or launch any grand escape plans—he’s more of a "find a comfy spot and nap like a pro" kind of guy. In addition to the above, Fumble is the ultimate dinner date—he loves eating, but don’t worry, he’s happy to share. He’s also a couch potato with a heart of gold, perfectly content to claim his spot for nap time but always ready to scooch over and make room for you. Need a snuggle buddy? Fumble’s got you covered. With his sweet, laid-back nature, he might just be the perfect life partner. Honestly, it’s hard to imagine a pup sweeter than him—he’s the kind of dog that makes you wonder if you’ve won the pet lottery. Ready to make your life 10 times better with a dog who’s basically perfect? Fumble is waiting for you! But don’t just stroll up and take him—this isn’t a free-for-all. You’ll need to fill out an adoption application at https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app (you know, so we can send it to his foster family and make sure you’re worthy of this charming pup). Once that’s all sorted, you’ll be making your way to Broken Arrow, OK, to pick up your new best friend. Don’t leave him waiting too long—after all...why wait when it is true love???
