Hey there, I’m Stuart — your future best friend wrapped in a gorgeous dark chocolate coat with sun-kissed highlights that shimmer when I run around the yard. Pretty handsome, right? I’m a soft, happy-go-lucky guy with a heart just as sweet as my face.
At around 40 lbs, I’m the perfect size for all the adventures — big enough for fun, but still easy to load up for road trips, patio hangs, walks, or lazy movie nights. My siblings and I are done growing, so what you see is exactly what you get: a fun-sized adventure buddy!
My absolute FAVORITE thing? BALLS. Toss one and watch me light up! I could happily chase, bounce, and zoom after a ball all day long. After playtime, I’m more than ready to chill beside my people because being with my humans is the best part of any day.
If you’re looking for a handsome boy who’s equal parts playful, loving, and ready to be your sidekick everywhere you go… I’m Stuart, and I’ve been waiting for you!

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
