Cornell is a nervous dog with heart of gold. Hes been at the shelter for 109 days - and has spent a lot of his formative months inside of a noisy chaotic place. He is hyper aware of all the scary noises going on at the shelter and is a pretty reserved because of it. Cornell has done great in foster, is calm and quiet in the kennel, and has been friendly with everyone he has met. He would do best in a home that has a confident and friendly dog that can help show him that the world isnt so scary. Small children may startle him and he should probably go to a home with mature kids and a house that doesnt have too much in and out foot traffic. A slow paced caring home will surely give him the confidence he needs to come out of his shell.
