My personality

My story

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

From his Foster Mama:
Watson is the sweetest boy! He gets along well with our Bernese mountain dog mix. In the first 2 hours in our home, he learned to use the dog door and hasn't had a single accident in our house. Watson loves to learn, he knows basic commands of sit, come, away and is learning down. Watson walks very well on a leash and is extremely food motivated. Watson loves some quality couch time but spends most of his time outside chasing squirrels and chewing sticks. He loves a good fuzzy blanket and squeaky toy. Watson wants to be friends with the cat, but his chase instinct is strong, and he usually just chases her down the stairs when she rejects his friendship.
Watson will do well in a home with someone needing a best friend. His favorite past time is following his people around the house so close that his nose is at the back of your knee. He likes the reassurance of a pat on the head, but he's not a huge cuddler. He likes movie time on the couch but apparently dislikes any Marissa tomei movies.... he barks at her 😂.... yes we tested this theory.. everyone's a critic.
Watson is an XL boy weighing around 65lbs at 6 months old.

His adoption fee is $130. He will come current on his age appropriate vaccinations, microchipped, on current flea/tick/heartworm prevention and neutered.
