My story

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

Contact the foster at, nadeau.josh@gmail.com

Linus is the sweetest boy and would make the perfect addition to any home. He is a big cuddle bug who loves to play fetch. He is very calm, rarely makes a peep and does well in his crate. He does well with our senior dog and we also have an infant who he is gentle with. Previous notes from walkers at the shelter stated no cats, we can`t comment on that but he does perk up when he sees squirrels. He is strong on the leash but nothing some training can`t fix. He is very treat motivated, did well in the car and has been friendly to everyone he has met. Linus is definitely one of the best walkers on leash! He had slack in the leash the whole time, just staying right by my side. He enjoys pets and giving kisses, but was not overbearing or mouthy at all. He was mostly non reactive to other dogs but if anything, showed positive body language and tail wagging when passing other dogs. We did encounter a cat and he was very reactive and interested, so safe to say he would do best in a no cat household. He has such a beautiful coat and coloring to him and such gentle loving eyes. He did well in the car and was very friendly passing by strangers while on a walk. 

•affectionate and loves to give kisses
•food motivated and takes treats gently
•knows sit and seems eager to please and learn
•shows positive body language towards other dogs on leash
•would make a great walking or hiking buddy!
•underweight and would benefit from a home who can give him a little tlc
