About

Meet Axel

Axel is a 12-week-old Collie/Shepherd/Retriever mix with a sweet and bright personality! At 20 pounds, he’s an energetic little guy during the day, loving playtime with the rest of the pack. At night, he’s also happy to wind down with cuddles and a good TV show. His fun, laid-back demeanor makes him a well-balanced pup who’s ready for adventure and snuggles alike.At home, Axel is catching on quickly to house training and will thrive with consistency and a regular routine. Crate training is still a work in progress, but he’s making steady improvements. When it’s mealtime, Axel’s excitement is contagious—he bounces and hops like a little bunny, bringing a smile to everyone around him! While he does whine when he needs to go outside, he isn’t overly vocal and adjusts well to changes in routine. He should be able to live in homes with shared walls (apartments/townhomes) just fine, making him adaptable to various living environments.Axel is a friendly pup so far, especially when playing with his siblings! He has no trouble with other dogs in the neighborhood either. He hasn’t been introduced to cats or kids yet, but his sweet demeanor suggests he would make a wonderful family dog.Axel’s energy level is typical for a puppy his age, enjoying active play during the day and relaxing when it’s time to settle down. While a fenced yard isn’t required, he currently enjoys access to one, giving him space to explore and run. He loves blankets and playing with all kinds of puppy toys, and his bursts of joyful energy are always entertaining. If you’re looking for a cuddly, lively puppy who loves to have fun and share quiet evenings, Axel is the perfect companion to bring joy to your family!If you are interested in this dog, fill out an application at this link to get the ball rolling - https://pethavenmn.org/adopt/adoptable-dogs/dog-adoption-application/The adoption fee is $550.
