My personality

Why I need a new home

Found or abandoned

My story

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


Another lady was wanting to get rid of him, I volunteered to take him temporally. He was so severely matted, his nails were long. No shots, not fixed, not potty trained. Found out after he was kept in a closet.
He is fascinated with new things. A bird flew over head and he stared at it.
He really just wants all the love and needs extreme training.
He is highly food motivated. He is ok with other dogs but his 15lbs does not mix well with my 5 lbs chihuahua. He is not gentle when jumping. I’m trying to teach him not to jump and trying to potty train. He just wants to play he loves toys, he destroys stuffed balls. But plays with stuffed animals. He only barks when he cannot see you. He loves all the pets and attention you can give him.0
