Need a fenced in yard: Not a requirement, but with all that puppy energy, a fenced yard would be a great bonus for him to stretch his legs.

Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them: Echo is the happiest little guy! You’d never guess he had a rough start—he’s happy all.the.time. He’s also super smart and a quick learner—he’s already mastered “sit,” and with a little more practice, he’ll be picking up all sorts of fun tricks. On top of that, he’s an A+ snuggler. Whether he’s curled up next to you or sprawled across your lap, he just loves being close. Echo’s got the best spirit, and who wouldn’t want those positive vibes in their life? Plus, just look at that face! He’s just the sweetest. Everyone could use a little more Echo in their day.
