My story

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

We got Tux as a puppy from a rescue program April 2018 and he is now 6 1/2 years old.
Our daughter is allergic to dogs and we have been doing all of the recommended actions; washing, vacuuming and allergy medicine. None of this has helped, she always has horrible colds and she just can't be a kid and roll on the floor or play with Tux.
Tux needs a place were he can run around, go for walks and lay next to you for lots of love. He is very affectionate and loves attention. He loves to play tug-of-war and blankets but fetch turns into keep-away. We never socialized him with dogs but we do have a cat in the house that is the same age and they play just fine. He likes when company comes over for extra attention but can be a little much if you don't tell him to sit and wait for attention.
Energetic, loving, loyal, extra friendly
Comes with kennel, ,toys, some food and random dog stuff.
