Personality:
If you're looking for a dog with character, Charcoal has it in spades. This enthusiastic young lad is an absolute dude who loves being around his people and is always ready to soak up attention. He is equally happy curling up for a cuddle or settling down with a tasty enrichment chew for some quiet downtime. Playful, cheeky and full of personality, Charcoal has a way of keeping everyone around him smiling.
Tamariki – 10+ while he works on his manners.

Size – Currently 21.2kgs. Will mature large in size.
Ideal home:
Charcoal is looking for an active, dog savvy family who can match his zest for life and continue helping him become the amazing dog we know he will be. He is currently in his lovable teenage phase, where testing boundaries is all part of growing up. Whether he's cheekily seeing what he can get away with or flashing that irresistible face after being caught, he has a way of making even his mischievous moments endearing. Ongoing training, consistency and plenty of fun enrichment will help channel his clever mind, strengthen your bond and set him up to become the very best version of himself.
He's equal parts cuddle bug, comedian and lovable troublemaker. What more could you ask for?
