About Me
4/6/10 ADOPTION PENDING!! He's a very sweet, well mannered and gentle boy. He has no issues getting along with the other dogs at his foster home. He has learned house rules very fast and respects boundaries. He's very affectionate and will put his head between your legs to get a little love. Out in the back yard, he mingles with Senneca and Rhys but he's still coming out of his shell and hasn't really started to play with them yet. He walks reasonably well on leash, though he will pull a bit if he sees a cat, but is not hard to control. He has been no trouble with food. Takes whatever you give him and eats slowly, but methodically. He's extremely gentle taking food from your hand. He appears to be healthy and in pretty good shape. He's a fairly large boy, I'm guessing 55+lb. His coat is very soft and downy, it appears to have been shaved down, so I think it's most his thick undercoat. That and his relatively large head give him the appearance of an overgrown puppy. From his appearance and movements, I would guess he his some sort of Lab or maybe Newfoundland mix. He is currently in a foster home in Gilbert.
