My story

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

This is Heath.a 4.5 yrs old, red tri, neutered male. He is sweet and affectionate.and has a cute wiggle waggle walk.

Heath was an owner surrender (owner's health was declining). He was an only dog, and he was really sad and upset after having lost his previous home. It took a while before Heath adjusted to us but is not happy with the dog or cat in our home, so he needs to be the only pet.

Heath very much prefers to be indoors and play indoors. Impeccably potty trained. We've not had *a single* potty accident. Not one! He is skittish on walks and we're still working on leash manners. Heath is easily terrified by fireworks, machinery, and loud noises. He could be perfectly happy getting his exercise by playing indoors or in a yard. Just not keen on going for walks, at least in an urban or city setting.

Heath is gorgeous, 49 lbs, and knew "sit" and "kennel up". He has learned "stay" and is learning "shake". He gives kisses, sometimes ambushing me when I'm tying my shoes. Please help Heath find his wonderful furever home.
