Ian

Ian is a happy, confident and cheeky boy who is always ready for his next adventure. This playful lad is wonderfully capable of entertaining himself, especially when there’s a stuffed toy involved. He’ll throw it into the air, give it a good shake, chase after it and generally have a grand old time! He’s also incredibly inquisitive and likes to make sure he knows exactly what’s going on, because apparently no corner can be left unexplored when you’re Ian.

Ian is a big, strong boy, so his forever family will need to be confident handlers who are committed to continuing and reinforcing his lead manners. He’s a bright boy who is eager to get out and about, and with the right guidance, he’ll make a fantastic companion. He’s got plenty of personality, plenty of enthusiasm and just enough cheekiness to keep life interesting. In other words, you could say Ian is always bringing the Ian-tertainment!

When it comes to canine friends, Ian has made his preferences very clear. He absolutely fell in love with our big assessor boy and the two of them had the beginnings of a beautiful bromance. So, while Ian would undoubtedly adore his humans, his perfect forever home would include a big, confident canine mate to share adventures, playtime and all the important business of being a professional dog. Ian is ready to find his people — and hopefully his best mate too!
