About Axl
Axl is a bright, energetic boy who loves being around people and thrives on affection. He’s playful, enthusiastic, and always ready for a good time. Whether he’s running around the yard, exploring on a walk, or leaning in for pats, Axl brings a fun, joyful presence everywhere he goes.
He has strong foundations in training and knows his basics well, but he will benefit from continued guidance and consistency. He can also be a bit vocal when he’s excited or trying to get attention—he’s a talker and proud of it.
Axl has been socialised with female dogs and does well with them, but he can be selective with male dogs, so careful introductions are needed. Overall, he is a friendly, loving dog who just wants to be close to his people.
