Rainier (aka Rainey Roo) is a happy, playful and affectionate puppy! He’s friendly and curious, though a little shy at first.

Rainier walks well on a leash and would thrive in a home that enjoys both playtime and snuggles. While he’s an active pup, he also knows when to settle down, curling up in his crate when he’s ready for a nap. He does very well in the crate and currently will whine a little to go out when he needs to in the night and then settles back in quickly to sleep.

This smart boy is food-motivated and eager to please, making him a joy to train. He already knows "sit" and we are working on more. Rainey is almost fully potty trained and will whine when he needs to go outside.

While Rainier enjoys playing with both humans and dogs alike, he is just as happy entertaining himself with a toy or snoozing at your feet. Like any curious puppy, he will get into things if he doesn’t have another more appropriate outlet, so he will need training and enrichment to continue his learning.

PHYSICAL
Rainer has soft cocoa fur with white dipped toes, a white chest expressive ears, and the prettiest green eyes.

HEALTH
Rainey is receiving his rounds of puppy vaccinations and is heartworm negative. He will be microchipped soon and neutered when age appropriate.
