Bandit

My story

Bandit isn’t just a looker—he’s a true sportsman at heart. For this dashing guy, tennis ball is life. Nothing else matters once that green fuzzy ball enters the picture! If you’re in need of a loyal ball-chasing companion, Bandit is your MVP.With that said, Bandit can get a little too into his game, so it’s important to set boundaries with ball time and work on cues like “drop it”—he has a habit of helping himself to toys (and sometimes hands!) when excitement takes over. Because of this, a home with mature, dog-savvy kids is the best fit.Bandit enjoys the great outdoors, where he can sniff to his heart’s content and show off his leash skills. While he may come off a bit aloof at first, he warms up with patience and soon reveals his affectionate side. He’s a big fan of booty scratches, cozy snuggles, and playing detective to find where you`ve hidden his beloved tennis balls.He’s smart, eager to please, and already knows sit, down, and come. As a working dog type, Bandit thrives when his brain and body are engaged—so a home that can offer enrichment, structure, and continued training would be ideal.Bandit has potential to live with cats and other dogs with ongoing socialization and guidance. Bandit can be selective with his dog friends so finding the right friend will be important! When the tennis balls are put away, he’s a curious, gentle, well-mannered gentleman who’s ready to explore the world by your side.Ready to meet your match on and off the field? Bandit’s waiting—ball in mouth.
