Hi there, I'm Fang! I'm a 1-year-old pup, about 50 pounds of lovable goof, and I’ve got the perfect mix of smarts, sweetness, and silliness. Life didn’t start out so great for me—I was rescued with my brother Pirata from a backyard breeder in Newark. But I’ve come a long way since then, and now I’m ready to find my forever family!

I’m house-trained, crate-trained, and full of good habits. I already know some impressive commands like “sit,” “touch,” “down,” “wait,” and even “no.” I catch on fast—just show me what you want, maybe wave a treat in the air, and I’m all ears! I’m not the kind of guy to bolt out the door or drag you down the street either. I wait patiently to go outside and enjoy watching the world go by like a little neighborhood watchdog (without all the barking). I’m playful and love a good zoom around the yard, but I’m not over the top. I’ve got a good sense of balance—fun when you want it, chill when you don’t. Honestly, I make an excellent couch buddy. Whether you're binging your favorite show or just relaxing, I’ll be right there beside you, happy to snuggle up.

When it comes to food, I’m super respectful. I don’t beg—I’ll just sit nearby like a true gentleman and see if you feel like sharing. If not, that’s okay too. I wait patiently for my meals, and I’m not pushy about it at all. I love going on adventures! Whether it’s a hike, a walk, swimming, a boat ride, or even hopping in the car, I’m ready to roll. I ride like a pro and am always up for exploring something new. I'm even great at the agility course, a real champ! When it's time to wind down, I’m more than happy to hang out in my crate. Give me a Kong with some peanut butter, and I’m content as can be. I don’t fuss when you leave or get overly excited when you return. I stay calm and cool through it all. One of the things they always laugh about is how clumsy I can be. What can I say? I’m still a puppy at heart, and sometimes my big paws haven’t quite figured out where the floor ends. But hey, that just adds to my charm.

So yeah, that’s me—Fang! A goofy, gentle, clever pup looking for someone to share my big heart and even bigger personality with. I'm microchipped, fixed, and up to date on immunizations.  My adoption fee is $415. Apply to adopt me, FANG NJ, at www.ehrdogs.org—I can’t wait to meet you!
