About Me
ADOPTION PENDING!! Cute, cute, cute! This smaller male is young, we're guessing around 9 months and was found on an Indian Reservation. He is friendly, knows very little (will sit and respond to "no"). He is doggie door trained. He is also a magician, and can escape locked crates and jump over large objects. The finder wanted to keep this nice youngster, but it was clear that he needed more space and a yard (she lives in a condo) and a lot more activity than she could provide. He likes chasing balls, bones, stock and plays with any toy that you give him including empty plastic bottles. He loves all people, very friendly. Is a little protective of food around other dogs - needs work on that. He is a little cautious of new things and will mark inside if he's new to a place and he's not watched closely. He is a very sweet pup and his finder put his needs first - we like that. Remember he is a pup/adolescent dog and will need training. And he needs activities and structure.
