My story

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


Brooks has been our baby since he was a puppy. He's great in cars, on runs and trails, loves to play and loves affection. He's always seen himself as one of us, he's cozy and comfortable inside just relaxing while we do. Loves sticks and chasing balls down. A very good listener, he sits, stays, lays down, and shakes. We've never fed him table food, and he's always gotten our best. He's vocal towards protecting his property and his needs, but a simple "no" or "thank you Brooks" is enough to stop his alerts. He's been around other dogs and cats his whole life, and he's not had many issues. We just had our first child, and in his limited experience around children, he's been tentative and nervous. He's shown his teeth to our child and growled, but we haven't let it go any further. We have another on the way and it's very difficult keeping the family apart. We'd love Brooks to enjoy the rest of his life in a place with more space and no one that makes him nervous like small children do.
