My story

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

Derek definitely comes off very timid but once he warms up, it's night and day! He's so playful like a puppy, but not mouthy!
He loves squeaky toys and playing tug of war.
He loves curling up next to you on the couch with a blanket and watching TV. Just likes being around you.
Derek is a good listener. If I call for him, he comes over right away.
He was fine in our backyard with a 4ft chain link fence. Not a jumper, doesn't mind squirrels. Just wants to have zoomies in the yard.
Dog friendly, just working on how to play.
Housetrained. Keeps his kennel clean. (Still working on kennel training and leash pulling)
Overall a good boy just waiting for a patient and loving home!
