Meet Galahad, the sweet and energetic companion you’ve been searching for! This pint-sized pup is a touch shy, but the way to his heart is through his love for treats. You’ll quickly find him bouncing around you in excitement for some delicious morsels.

Galahad’s curiosity knows no bounds, and he’s always eager to explore new horizons. He’s a social pup at heart and thrives in the company of another confident dog, making him the perfect addition to a loving home with a furry friend by his side. He loves to be on the go and makes for a fun time with limitless memories. It’s never a dull day with the silly pup.

Don’t miss the opportunity to bring Galahad into your life. With his endearing personality and unwavering loyalty, he’s ready to steal your heart and become your forever companion!

Here’s what his foster parent had to say:

“He LOVES all his crunchy and squeaky toys - especially his little hedgehog. And he also enjoys treat puzzles, snuffle mats, and kongs. He's definitely a chase and will chase down anything you want to throw - although he also likes to play tug so you have to win at tug to get him to let it go before you can throw it again. He loves to go on walks and has been on a few short runs. His curiosity is endless and he will happily explore new areas. From quiet neighborhoods to a busy boardwalk he takes it all in stride. He's been a great little travel companion on road trips and he's great in pet-friendly hotels. He really loves kids and anyone who will play with him. But he's also getting more snuggly as he grows more comfortable in the house. He would absolutely love to have a family where he can feel safe and loved and part of the pack.”

“We've been fostering this sweet little guy on and off for a few months and he is still the most perfect dog. We've been happy to take him on our travels when a pet-friendly hotel is an option and he's been a fantastic travel companion. He loves exploring new places and he has great manners at restaurants. Everyone who meets him is impressed at what a good dog he is. Although he is quite picky about his furry friends, I think he would do well with another little dog buddy that he could play with throughout the day and share adventures with. It may take a little effort to get him comfortable with a new friend, but we've done it successfully with a couple of friends' dogs and he's been really happy to have a playmate. He adores children and loves to play with anyone who'll take the time. He's always very gentle taking treats and he's careful not to bite anything that he shouldn't. He can tel the difference between his toys and the kids' toys and he's never chewed on anything he's not supposed to. He's fully crate trained but he's so well housetrained that we feel perfectly comfortable leaving him alone in the house. He's also a great walking partner and seems to enjoy short runs as well. He prides himself on being a protector and is vigilant about alerting us to noises outside so he would do best in a quiet home without too much activity going on outside. He loves hanging out in the garden with us although he would probably be perfectly fine in a quiet apartment environment as well. He is so eager to please and although he can be shy at first it's been incredibly rewarding to watch him finally relax and feel comfortable and safe in our home. He is such a sweet dog and he would make an amazing addition to a family that will allow him to be the loving, loyal companion that he so desperately wants to be.”
