NANTUCKET

 

Male | 3 months old | 11 pounds & growing! | Puppy energy | Currently lives with kids and 2 dogs | Hasn’t met cats | Fostered in Burlington | Inquisitive & playful

Introducing NANTUCKET… or, as his foster family likes to call him, Tuck! Arguably the cutest, most confident little scruff, he flew straight in with that cool coastal charm of his just to meet his future fam. He’s a one-of-a-kind pup, this one, though we’re pretty sure you already know it!

NANTUCKET is a smarty pants. At 12 weeks old, he's hard at work mastering potty breaks, learning commands, and settling into his crate for bedtime. He’s also working on his walking skills. It can be tricky with all the noises, aka distractions (think: fire trucks, garbage trucks, people saying hi, etc.). If you’re committed to his ongoing training and building a bond by setting boundaries and advocating for him on walks, you might just be the perfect match. 

Life in his foster family’s home currently involves all the attention and playtime NANTUCKET could want and then some. Living with 2 kiddos aged 7 and 9, and dogs (including a former SOS rescue!) is very fun for him. He would make a great addition to a family with kids or even a home with a second dog, as he looks up to other scruffs. 

NANTUCKET has a nose for adventure and is keeping his first-time foster family busy. He LOVES to play! Encouraging him to settle on his own in his crate by using independent enrichment activities like a snuffle mat or Kong benefits him. Oh, and they also help build his confidence even more :)

If you're ready for lots of puppy kisses and, yes, bum wiggles, then NANTUCKET could be the pup for you. Apply to adopt! Life will be an infinite adventure with him by your side, that’s for sure.
