A little bit about Spud

At just 9 months old, Spud is a Bull Arab mix with enough energy to power a small city and absolutely zero interest in sitting still like an actual spud. This boy is more like a cyclone in a dog suit - full of bounce, personality, and chaotic charm.

Spud is on the lookout for a home that can match his zest for life (or at least keep up with it). He's not just all go-go-go though - underneath the whirlwind is a sweet, goofy pup who's still learning how to dog in this big, confusing world.

Here's what Spud needs from his future family:

Confidence building - He can get a little overwhelmed by new things and people, so slow, positive introductions and encouragement are key.
Impulse control & ignoring other dogs - Right now, Spud thinks everything is either a party or a wrestling match. We're working on it.
Force-free training - Spud responds best to gentle, reward-based methods. No harsh stuff here, thanks!
Adults only, please! - Until he figures out how not to be a living tornado, Spud will do best in a home without young kids.
A doggy sibling? - Maybe! If you've got a well-matched, tolerant dog who won't mind a bit of puppy chaos, Spud might love a buddy.

In return, you'll get a hilarious, loving, slightly ridiculous best friend who's guaranteed to keep life interesting. He's the kind of dog who'll make you laugh every single day... even while he's zooming around the backyard at 100km/h with absolutely no idea what his back legs are doing.

So, if you're ready to embrace the chaos, commit to training, and love a very energetic work-in-progress, come meet Spud.

He's not a couch potato, but he might be your perfect match!
