Hale is fostered in Saskatchewan!

Meet sweetie pie Hale! An approx. 2-3 old boy who would like to please sit in your lap while you watch TV and rub his cute ears. Hale is happiest with his people and wants to be right with you. If you don't allow dogs on the couch, Hale is not for you!! He LOVES to snuggle on the couch (and in bed actually, so be prepared for that too!) and we'd hate to see one of his very favourite things taken away from him. If, however, you are looking for a Netflix snuggle buddy....Hale is your boy!

Hale is not a huge fan of the crate. He is, though, fine when left alone in the house uncrated so it's not a big deal if he doesn't like, want or have a crate in his future. Potential adopters can continue to work with him to make him more comfortable with longer crated periods but it will need to be done slowly with lots of positive reinforcement.

Hale is not sure about young children, they seem to make him nervous so he is probably best with children 12 yrs and older.

Hale is great with other dogs but in the long run he would likely enjoy being an only dog so he can soak up all the love and attention himself. He really want to be the centre of attention with his human friends and while he's very well-behaved with other dogs, he doesn't seem to read their "bug off" language very well and then is shocked when he's told off by the other dogs. He also has a very "in your face" way of playing with other dogs, that some dogs will tolerate and some will truly not appreciate at all. He will be fine in a home as the only dog but will also be okay with a very laid-back dog who will put up with his goofy puppy, forceful style of play.

Cats are suuuuuper interesting for Hale. Once he is use to the cat he likes to poke at him with his nose. In the house I cat is probably fine. Outside, best no cats, as he seems to have a high prey drive.

Hale is just a little bit nervous with new things but once he checks things out he's his normal, happy, bouncy self. He is such a friendly, sweet, affectionate boy that will bond and love his new family and very much want to please them. Hale is a very smart boy who and he loves to play. Someone interested in dog sports will love this smart little boy!
