Jasper is a spirited, fun-loving pup who’s full of energy and heart! He lives for playtime-especially a good game of fetch-and loves to show off his goofy personality. He’s already learned some basics like “sit,” “down,” and “paw,” and is always motivated when treats are involved.
Jasper will thrive in an active home with a patient, committed adopter who can continue guiding him on his training journey. While he’s eager to please, he can get a bit jumpy and mouthy when excited, so structure and consistency will be important. A securely fenced yard is ideal for giving him the space to play, train, and burn off energy safely. He’ll benefit from continued leash work and confidence-building activities, including gradual training to help him feel more comfortable when left alone.
We’re looking for a dedicated adopter who understands the value of positive reinforcement and is willing to invest time into his development. Working with an AnimalKind Certified Trainer is highly encouraged and will help strengthen your bond and set Jasper up for success. To support his transition, we’re happy to provide training resources and guidance to his new family.
