My story

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

Jasper is a 3 year old boy who loves all kinds of play, attention, and fun! He is always looking to please the people he is around.
He is so charming, kind, and has really come into his own with the help of our staff and volunteers. He is adjusting well to things that previously frightened him, mostly cars and car rides, and we feel that he is ready to get to know a family and head home. He is very dog friendly and seems to find comfort in his dog friends at the rescue, Ivory and Uno.
Jasper's adoption fee has been sponsored! His future adopter will not need to pay an adoption fee thanks to a kind donor.

From our daily notes about the dogs:
"Took Jasper up to the big yard for training. Worked on "come" "touch" "place" "stay" and "free". He did really well on all commands today especially "place". He's really starting to get it down. He was super focused today." It seems that Jasper is and to focus on his commands once he gets the sillies out with a round of fetch or play.
They are also working on loose leash walking. He loves fetch, affection, and play time with people and dogs. He is greeting strangers with happy tail wags and seems to settle into a room more easily.

Age: 3 years, 10 months
Weight: 56 pounds
Other dogs: Yes!
Kids: 12+ for now, has previously done well with kids but he needs time to decompress, establish routine, and continue his work with training.
Cats: Interested but not aggressive
