My story

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

We got Halo from a breeder for my husband, but turns out we can't give halo what he truely needs. He is purebred with a brindle mom and sable dad. He is high energy and head strong. He needs someone even tempered and able to give him consistent discipline and training. He needs exercise and activities. He doesn't seem to have a mean bone in his body but could probably be trained to be more protective. He seems more afraid than mean at this point. We have kids (ages 18 and 11 boys) and a cat in the house and he only wants to play with them. He has been through puppy and intermediate training so knows the basics but is very smart and easy to train obedience. He's not great yet with boundaries or personal space though, maybe once he's neutered. He could use more leash training, but does walk with gentle or easy leader, again something we aren't able to give him (enough exercise). He'll be a great running dog see day. He's house broken and crate trained. He also likes to chew on toys and bones, and LOVES balls and playing fetch.
