My story

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

**I am located in Georgia, but I can be transported north to you!**

Name: Miles

Breed: Pit bull/Boxer Mix

Sex/Age/Weight: Male, approx. 5 years old, 55 lbs  

Vetting: Up to date on vetting, heartworm negative, neutered, and microchipped   

House trained/Crate Trained: Yes/Yes  

Dogs/Cats/Children: Yes/Unknown/Yes. Current foster home includes two teenagers and two three-year-old grandchildren that visit often. Miles loves them all, though supervision with young children is always recommended. When we take walks on a leash in our neighborhood, Miles wants to meet everyone. Sometimes he barks and pulls in excitement because he loves meeting someone new! Miles does well around other dogs at adoption events. A previous foster home had other large dogs and Miles did great with them as well. Sometimes his excitement overwhelms other dogs. With a calm experienced introduction to other dogs, Miles should be successful. Sometimes Miles just needs a few minutes to get settled and acclimated until the nervous energy burns off!

Energy Level: He loves to play and take walks, but most of the time he’s chilling in his bed next to his foster mom or brother.  

Before FAR/My History: Miles was found as a stray and ended up at the Clayton County shelter on the urgent list, at which time Furever After Rescue saved him.  

Training Status/Commands I know: He is a very good boy walking on a leash, but may pull when he sees other dogs.

Working on: Working on “sit” before starting to eat and waiting for leash to be clipped.  

Things I like: Lots of pets, hanging out with his foster mom, walks, treats and chew toys like Stuffies and Kong.

Things I don’t like: Hugs, the vacuum   

Things that make my humans happy: Miles is a very happy, calm, easy-going dog and is usually content to sit by his foster mom's side. He doesn't jump on the furniture. Miles lets his foster mom know when he needs out or if dinner is a minute late! Miles is a joy to his foster family.  

Ideal Family/Home: Active family that will take Miles for walks and offer lots of interaction and attention.

Don’t let the white around the muzzle fool you, Miles is NOT a senior!
