He's eager to learn and responds beautifully to positive reinforcement. - Friendly & Social – AJ enjoys the company of adults but may be better suited to a home with no kids or other pets. - Resilient & Adaptable – Despite growing up in a shelter system, he's adjusted like a champ. No chewing, no chaos—just a well-behaved boy with a stable personality. - Playful & Active – Long walks, fetch in the yard, or working on new tricks with snacks—AJ is game for it all. He loves a variety of treats, even fruits and veggies! His Ideal Home: Active individual who enjoys daily walks and playtime A yard or access to outdoor space Continued training in high-distraction environments Not cat-tested, but may give chase.
