This calm and gentle boy doesn’t know how he ended up in the shelter. He clearly had someone who loved him as he is so gentle, polite and awesome In the car. He is timid and shy at first but will open up with some treats and soft touches. He fell asleep multiple times in the car, clearly relieved to be in some peace and quiet. While at the park, he noticed other dogs with an ear perked up but did not pull towards them, bark or make any type of reaction. He saw a squirrel and did the same. He walked on the leash very slowly without pulling. If his attention was needed, all you had to do is rustle the treat bag and he snaps his head right towards you and sits. All and all, a low key calm guy who deserves quiet place for a good nap! Some more notes about me:
Easy to leash and walk Treat motivated and take them gently Knows sit Loves to sniff around

As long the pet is spayed/neutered, you can take them home the same day.
