My story

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

Here’s Pete!!! He is a 1 ½ year old neutered male who loves to play with other dogs. He’s smart, energetic, playful, loyal, funny, engaging, and adorable. He needs a securely fenced yard and an owner who is home at least part of the day. If you were going to be gone eight or nine hours a day and want to leave him crated he is not the dog for you. He also cannot stay alone in the yard all day by himself. He would love another dog to play with. He gets along with everyone but in the long run a female dog would probably be the best fit. Any breed would work great for Pete. Pete is up to date on his vaccinations as of September 2018. He is housebroken and crate trained. He likes to be with his people when he’s indoors. He’s either in someone’s lap or in his nest near the TV. He enjoys walks and greets other dogs enthusiastically. He walks well on a leash but can pull pretty strongly for a few minutes starting out. He enjoys riding in the car. He has had other training from a previous owner but responds inconsistently. With some patience from his new family, he can pick up common commands beyond sit and stay. Pete’s yard should have a minimum six foot fence since he’s excited by wildlife and dogs walking by. He needs the right home with an owner who can walk him regularly or who has another energetic dog for his playmate. Pete requires a home with no kids and no cats. He’s adopter must be comfortable with a home visit and have a good vet reference. The adoption fee is $200.
