My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Jake is house trained, enjoys neighborhood walks, car rides, golf cart rides, being brushed and petted, getting a bath, and being with you. He is a loyal dog who will lean into you when you pet him and he wags his tail with happiness. The Weimaraner breed is known for their light amber colored eyes - and grey/blue eyes, and Jake has one of each! It was fun for our foster volunteers to see how willing Jake was to try new things - jumping into the neighbor's golf cart for a ride in Sun City, sampling a morning smoothie, walking into the shower and letting them give him a bath, showing off his obedience commands and his trick "shake". He was such a good sport about everything he was introduced to. Jake walks nicely on leash, he keeps pace with you, but also likes to occasionally pause and sniff the flowers and bushes along the way. And he likes car rides. The very first time our volunteers opened the car door for Jake, he hopped right in. Jake loved it! While Jake seems to be polite when meeting other dogs on neighborhood walks, he does want to be the only dog in his home and he wouldn't enjoy visiting dog parks. He would also like not to live with cats. He doesn't always want to share his things so any children in his new home should be age 10 or older. A consultation will be provided to Jake's adopter to learn more about him and his individual needs.
