My story

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

Vets say Catahoula Mix but my kids prefer adorable (is that a breed?). Shedding is minimal, he has a painted coat. He is pretty and still looks like a puppy. He LOVES dog parks to socialize! Best off his leash with other dogs. Guilty of not 'leash training' him, never invested in it, so he can be rambunctious on walks. Sun likes hiking trails & creeks & greeting kids or anyone with food. He is 'just house trained' at this time. Sun is sensitive to certain noises (fireworks, guns, sudden loud vehicles/motorcycles). He is vocal (husky-lite) and we deciphered those vocals as; bathroom, food begging, and bedtime request. Sun likes stuffed animals and self-soothes by nibbling/not tearing on them; oddly it works for him. He is a lap dog/bed snuggler. Lives in loving home with 3 kids ages 7-17 (two have special needs). Anxious in vehicles but never any bathroom or vomiting issues. Just nerves. Loyal to family, smart, trainable, and good babysitter. Cute ears that flip-flop on walks
