Dak

My story

Dak / Neutered Male / 2.5 Years / 75lbs / Coonhound x American Bulldog / Dogs: Yes / Cats: No / Kids: 13+ / Location: Brampton 📍 ADOPTION FEE LOWERED $375 This handsome, high energy dork is full of life (and beans) and absolutely thrives on human connection and active days. Dak has so much love, enthusiasm, and goofy charm to give, and he’s looking for an active household with the time, patience, and energy to keep up with him. He’s a quick learner, food motivated, and genuinely wants to please. He’s starting to understand what’s expected of him, including boundaries. He’s house trained and loves his crate. For Dak, the “tired dog, happy dog” mantra couldn’t be more true. When he gets enough exercise (2–3 hours per day), he’s at his absolute best. If his needs aren’t fully met, he can become restless and have trouble settling, often seeking extra attention or stimulation until he’s had a proper outlet for his energy. If you’re a hiker, he’d be thrilled to join you. Dak is big, strong, and full of enthusiasm. He can jump when over stimulated, and due to his strength, we’re searching for a home without young kids. He would love to have a dog friend at home, but no cats, his hound nose makes him far too excited about a good chase. And speaking of that hound nose… if there’s food within reach, Dak will absolutely try to find it. Counters, bags, pockets, if it smells good, he’ll investigate, so a home that’s mindful about food management will set him up for success. Dak is genuinely great with other dogs and enjoys their company. He sometimes forgets just how big and strong he is, especially during play, but he means well and responds to guidance. With continued structure and positive experiences, he’ll keep building confidence and manners. Dak is up to date on all vetting. He is located currently in Brampton.
