This handsome boy is Silas, ARPH #14662! Just turned four years old on 12/29, this neutered blue merle was well-loved but came to rescue when his family lost their home. Silas weighs around 55 pounds and is up to date on preventatives. He knows sit, down, come, shake/paw, and stay, although not always reliably. He was housebroken and crate trained in his previous home, but he does complain if crated now in his busy foster home; he's afraid he's going to miss something!Silas was raised with children; a home with them would be considered on an individual basis. He is good with other dogs but no cats for him. Never having been taught leash manners, he's a bulldozer on leash so would need work on that. He enjoys riding in the car but needs a reminder to wait before jumping out. He loved going to Petco to choose a toy. Silas loves beef chew bones, toys, and playing fetch, although he's not always willing to give the toy/ball back.Silas is very food motivated and learns quickly. He's very affectionate, gives kisses, and loves to snuggle until it's time to do something; then he's eager to go and do whatever you ask of him.Silas is on the higher end of moderate energy so will need regular, consistent exercise. A traditionally fenced yard is preferred so he can exercise safely. Fortunately, he's got a good off switch inside. He will make a wonderful companion that will be totally devoted to his owner. He is fostered near Bath, PA.
