Each week, the Independent highlights an animal available for adoption at Baypath Humane Society in Hopkinton. This week’s adoptable animal is 7-month-old Timon.

Here is Baypath’s description of Timon:

“Timon is a friendly and energetic young dog with a big heart and a zest for life! This playful pup is always excited to meet new people and other dogs, making him a great companion for an active home. He’s smart, food-motivated and eager to learn, which makes training with him both fun and rewarding.

“Timon loves going for walks, playing with his favorite toys and spending quality time with his people. While he can be a little nervous in new situations, he quickly warms up with patience and encouragement, revealing his sweet and loving nature.

“Timon would do best in a home with teens and adults who can keep up with his playful energy and continue building his confidence. While we’re not sure how he feels about cats just yet, he’s ready to focus on creating new memories with his forever family.

“If you’re looking for a smart, active and affectionate companion, Timon is ready to fill your days with fun and love!”
