My personality

My story

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

Hey! My name is Washington! I am a regal boy around 2 years old. I was pretty underweight when I first arrived at the shelter, but now I am in tip-top shape! I am extremely sweet and affectionate. I am so kind hearted even though I have been through so much in my short life. I do need a home without children under 8 because I get excited and I don`t want to knock anyone over! It’s unknown how I do with other animals. Here is what a volunteer had to say about me: he is affectionate and a happy go lucky guy who loves to join you in whatever you want to do whether that’s playing with toys, training, or giving affection. He’s a quick learner and I started teaching him the Down cue the other day. He’s an active boy at the shelter but in a home with his exercise and mental enrichment needs met I think he will settle in and become a big cuddle bug. Washington did have a day out with another volunteer and they said he was very well behaved! Come meet Washington!!!
