Meet Percy, one of the delightful Fantasia Pups! This bold and animated puppy is a true joy, thriving in his foster home where he loves to run around and play. Percy is a natural attention-seeker who enjoys lots of snuggles and has been wonderfully socialized with both dogs and dog-savvy cats. His playful spirit and affectionate nature make him an absolute delight to be around, promising endless fun and companionship to his future family.
As a Shepherd and Lab mix, Percy inherits a wonderful blend of intelligence, loyalty, and an eager-to-please temperament. He is expected to grow into a medium to large-sized dog, embodying the best traits of both breeds: a keen mind for training from the Shepherd side and the friendly, outgoing nature of a Labrador. Percy is already showing great potential as a family companion, being good with dogs, cats, and children, making him a versatile addition to many homes.
Percy is looking for a family ready to invest the time, patience, and energy required to raise a young pup into a well-adjusted adult. He will need consistent house training, basic obedience, and leash training, along with plenty of socialization opportunities. A home that can provide proper exercise, mental stimulation, and unwavering attention and love will help Percy flourish into the best companion he can be. He dreams of a family where he is an integral part of daily life, always sleeping indoors and made a priority.
