Here's what the humans have to say about me:
If ears are your game, Ting wants your name! The stand-up ears on this handsome fella have the most riz you've ever seen. And Ting also has an adorable personality to match his eye-catching good looks. Although he can be a little shy at first, he craves affection and loves to be scratched around his ears, neck, chest, back, pretty much everywhere. Ting recently got to spend some time in a foster home where he was able to open up and relax. He really enjoyed making friends with his doggy foster brothers, frequently engaging them in happy games of chase around the yard. He also enjoys chasing tennis balls and squeaky toys, and when playtime is over, a quick dip in the wading pool is the perfect way to cool off in Ting's opinion.
This happy-go-lucky guy is the perfect mix of playful energy and cuddly couch potato. He would be a great match for a family looking for an active young playmate for their current dog, or he would be fine on his own with someone who took him out for walks and fun adventures. His goofy playtime antics will make you laugh, and his sensitive soulful gaze will win your heart.
