About Everest

Everest is a fun-loving young man with plenty of personality and enthusiasm to share! This handsome boy is a lovely mix of clever, playful and affectionate, with a few cheeky antics thrown in for good measure. Everest is a good listener who already knows some basic cues, including sit and bed, and generally has lovely manners around people. He's a confident, bouncy boy who can get a little overexcited at times and may jump up when he's particularly happy to see you. Everest can be quite vocal when he's impatient or would rather not be waiting in his kennel. He's a boy who likes to be involved and isn't shy about letting you know! When it comes to playtime, Everest loves a good game of fetch with his favourite soft toy. He's particularly attached to one special toy, which he carefully preserves, although other toys might not be quite so lucky! He also enjoys his food enrichment, especially a tasty frozen slow feeder. Everest has met other dogs and has done well, enjoying a good play with his canine friends. He could potentially share his home with another dog, provided they are a good match for his playful nature and energy levels. He could also be happy as the only dog, soaking up all the attention himself! We think Everest would suit an active home willing to keep him entertained with walks, play, training and enrichment. His enthusiasm means he'll need someone comfortable handling a strong, excitable young dog and helping him continue to develop his manners. A securely fenced yard would be a bonus, and older, dog-savvy children may be a better fit for his bouncy nature. We don't yet know how Everest would manage with cats, young children or being left home alone, and he'll need time and patience as he learns the routines of a new home. He will likely need some guidance in a home with toilet training. If you're looking for a clever, playful companion with a big personality, a love of fetch and a soft spot for a good pat, Everest could be your boy! 💙 Everest is currently located at the Palmerston North centre.
