My story

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

Alton is a super sweet dog. Hes great with other dogs and people he meets. Shy at first but warms up quickly. House trained and never had an accident in our home from day 1. Walks well on a leash and uses that time to sniff as much as he can. Loves petting behind his ears and his tummy. Likes his occasional bone and ball play and enjoys his daily morning & evening walks. Hes active but in the next moment is full out like a light. Hed make a great hiking and running companion on the trails. Not an escape artist, he loves his people and may venture a bit away but wants to be nearby. Not much of a barker too which is nice for the neighbors. Have not had concerns about any kind of aggression with him, food or otherwise, hed be a wonderful buddy. Hes a lover not a fighter from what weve seen. Weve been working on sit and stay and hes doing really well in a short amount of time. Just needs a Furever home.
