My story

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


Vlad was unable to stay with his prior family due to some very rough circumstances. He previously had a growth plate break on his right hind leg. According to the vet, the leg healed but not perfectly, so he has a permanent limp when walking, but it doesnt slow him down at all.

He is a very affectionate dog, loveable, housebroken, playful, and learns quickly. He has beautiful, unique coloring and a white 'V' on his tail. He has a bit of separation anxiety and will follow you everywhere. He does settle down in his crate, though, if you get him used to a routine. An active household would be great for him, as he gets a bit restless if he doesn't get some activity every day. He may not be the right fit for young kids as he is still pretty mouthy, though improving. He is a strong dog and a little stubborn/determined, but we have seen no signs of aggression towards other dogs or humans (not tested with cats), and he is eager to please.
