Hey, friend! Landon here.
I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and a few zoomies) saved up for the right person.
I'm on the bigger side — but honestly, that's just more of me to hug.
I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that worry you — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.
I'd love to meet you. But if I'm not quite the one, maybe you could do me one tiny favor — print my bio and pop it up somewhere a future best friend might spot it. Who knows, I might see you at the park someday! Either way, thank you for stopping by and giving me a moment. It really did mean a lot. — Landon 🐾
The rescue’s notes on Landon
Meet Landon, a goofy, lovable shepherd mix with big zoomies! 1 year old and 55 pounds, this handsome pup is full of energy, curiosity, and joy. Found as a stray at a construction site, Landon is now ready to build a future with a forever family of his own. Landon spent some time in a temporary foster home. He is incredibly smart, treat-motivated, and already knows "sit", "paw" and "down." He made good progress with house training, and settled in beautifully once he felt comfortable. This silly guy would thrive in an active home with room to run, play, and continue learning. After a fun day of adventures, Landon's favorite thing is snuggling up for pets —he'll happily drift right off to sleep beside you. At the shelter, Landon has done wonderfully in doggy playgroups. He absolutely loves other dogs and likes to show off his fun side with chase games and play bows galore. If you're looking for a loyal shadow, a playful companion, and a total sweetheart wrapped into one energetic pup, Landon might just be your match!
