Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Age: 1 year old (aprox.)
Breed: Black Labrador mix
Is your dog good with other dogs: Yes but is still a puppy and loves to play.
Is your dog good with cats: Unknown
Is your dog good with kids: Yes but he is a big dog and jumps when exited so I would say 10+ children.
Is your dog house trained: Not completely but he will let you know when he has to go by jumping at the door.
Is your dog crate trained: He does have some separation anxiety and will need a plastic crate not a metal one. He does sleep in his crate every night.
Does your dog have any special needs: Yes he needs lots of love. And patience someone who will understand his back ground. Someone who can also help him with his separation anxiety
Does your dog have any or display any aggression (toys, food, people): No but he nibbles a bit when he gives kisses sometimes.
Is your dog playful: Yes he loves to play with me and alone with his toys as well.
Does your dog like to snuggle: Yes he is a real snuggle bug!
Does your dog know basic commands: Yes. We have been working on sit and stay and he seems to be getting those two commands.
Does your dog know any special tricks: No
Does your dog like to go on walks: Yes he is used to taking a 30min-1hr walk everyday around
lunch time.
Does your dog have any fears: No
Does your dog have any unique traits you have noticed whether in personality or physically: He has frostbite marks on his ears and a cigarette burn on each one of his butt cheeks.
What are the 3 first words that come to mind when you think of your dog: Cute, Playful & Puppy
In a short paragraph Please provide any other details or a brief overview of your foster dog:
Murkuleese was found in the lower town area of Ottawa freezing, starving, terrified with cigarette burns on his bum while tied to a fence with a seat belt strap. So when we met him he was completely emotionally shut down, kept his tail between his legs all the time, did not want to eat in our presence and was just scared of everybody and everything. Since he’s been living at our house, with a lot of TLC of course, he has completely come out of his shell and is full of love and joy his tail wags all the time now and has turned out to be a very lovable dog!
