My story

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

Please contact foster at robertasa113@gmail.com

This handsome, athletic boy was easy to leash today; Rex is strong, so harness recommended; Rex knows “sit”; he was not mouthy or jumpy; he was treat motivated and took them gently; Rex was playful in the yard! A fun energy level! More about Rex:

•Rex was the most well-behaved and easiest daycation that I have taken out.
•Knows sit, down, leave it, wait, responds immediately to his name and redirects from distractions quickly. Smart, people-pleaser!
•Good in the car.
•Good in the bath; was very tolerant even though he didn`t love it. Several small dogs walked by and he ignored them.
•GREAT on the leash. Walks next to you and checks in often.
•He did not react to barking dogs, screaming kids and bikes we passed while walking in Freedom Park.
•Initially interested in squirrels. After being redirected a couple of times, he ignored them.
•Did great with an initial slow intro to resident cat and small senior dog; redirected easily.
•Positive, friendly energy to all dogs he met.
•Very treat motivated and takes treats gently
•He is very responsive to his person and would be a loyal companion.
