My story

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

Doggy Day Out Report:

Today I: went to Almaden Lake Park with my friend. I saw a lot of people, other doggy friends in the park! I sniffed a loooooooot of scents! After a long walk, I got a pupcup! It was so much fun!
Three Words to Describe Me are: Affectionate, Happy, Energetic
Notes from My Walker: Mister is such a charming young pup here at SJACS! I took him out for a SVPP Shelter Dog Day Out last Wednesday, and we had an absolute blast!
I leashed and harnessed him in the side yard at the end of my volunteer shift, just like I usually do. He was super excited and a bit wiggly, but I distracted him with some tasty treats, and he went along with it without any fuss.

He was a bit unsure about getting into my car and needed a little boost, but he was happy to accept it. At the park, we saw lots of people walking, jogging, and biking, and he was friendly with everyone we met! He did get a little excited when he saw other dogs, but it was easy to manage—just keeping a bit of distance did the trick. Since he regularly participated in playgroup, I knew he got along well with other dogs; I just wanted to keep him calm during our walk. Although he pulled a bit, he often stopped to sniff around and generally walked well on the leash. He was super eager for treats and had a solid sit!

He wasn`t reactive to the geese and ducks in the park. In fact, he got a bit startled when some geese took flight as we walked by!
What touched me the most was his affectionate nature. He absolutely loved people! Whenever I stopped and called his name, he`d come running, lean against me, and let me pet him all over. You could really tell he enjoyed the attention!
Come meet Mister! I bet you`ll fall in love with this loving and goofy boy right away!
