My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Adventure. He is a young adult dog of about a year old. He is sweet and loving but also very scared of new people. He lives with his foster Mom and a 9yr old girl. He has warmed up to his foster Mom but sometimes is even still scared of her. He will allow the child to pet him if Mom is near, will take treats from her and does follow her. He wants so much to trust everyone and cuddle but he has a hard time trusting. Due to this we think he would do better in a home without small children, they would scare him too much. He does not bite in fear at all, just hides. He is great with other dogs! He is dominate so best to be with a submissive dog. He loves cats but does chase them. The cats in his foster home love him so do not run. He has a funny habit of “chewing” on the scruff of their necks which they love so they let him. Must be like a neck massage. He is 90% housetrained. He lives with an older dog who is not housetrained so it is hard for him to totally get you go outside all the time. He is very smart and we feel he will be 100% very quickly when placed in a home. He is not crate trained as his foster Mom felt it would scare him too much. He is not destructive at all while alone in the home.
He is the cutest, sweetest little guy who is just going to need someone who has the patience to make him feel safe.
