Hi, Im Stephan.Ive heard people say I had a bit of a rough start in life. For a while, I wasnt sure what to make of this big world or the humans in it. Kindness was something I had to learn about slowly, one gentle word and one patient person at a time. Because of that, I can be a little shy when meeting new people, but if you give me a chance, a soft voice, and a kind heart, youll get to watch something really special happen-I start to bloom.Every day Im becoming braver and more confident. Ive discovered that people can be pretty wonderful, and recently I learned about something that has completely changed my life: toys. OH BOY, are they fun! I still get excited every time I get to play, as if Im making up for lost time. Watching me discover new things is one of my favorite ways to make my humans smile.Another thing I absolutely love? Other dogs. If you really want to see the happiest version of me, just put me in a yard with a canine friend. Nothing beats running, playing, and zooming around with a four-legged buddy. When Im out there having fun with my dog pals, my joyful personality shines through for everyone to see.Im looking for a family that understands that some of us need a little extra time to feel safe. In return, youll get to be part of my journey as I continue growing into the confident, loving dog Im meant to be. The best things in life are worth waiting for, and I think Im one of them.So, what do you say? Bring the whole family and come meet me today. I cant wait to show you just how far Ive come-and how much love I still have to give.Love,Stephan
