Major is an absolute gem of a dog with a calm, easy-going nature and a friendly personality that makes him hard not to love. He enjoys being around people and is always looking for interaction, whether that's joining in on family activities or simply hanging out by your side. One of Major's standout qualities is how attentive he is. He already has a good understanding of commands and is constantly checking in with his humans for direction and guidance. His eagerness to listen and willingness to learn make him a highly trainable dog with plenty of potential. Major would suit a wide range of homes, from families looking for a loyal and affectionate companion to an individual seeking a dog they can continue training and working with. If you're looking for a dog that's equal parts best friend and willing partner, Major could be the perfect match. Major is good with stock, but we are unsure how he is with cats.
If Major isn't quite the right fit, these dogs are close matches.
