My story

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

My rescue was pregnant upon adoption and we kept one of the pups- Vader.

He is very safe to be around and has never attempted to bite anyone or any other dogs, however he will bark at strangers while on the leash. Super sweet, he will sometimes knock us over to lick our faces. Obsessed with licking.

He is a little reactive to strangers, but will warm up with time.

Vader does very well at doggy day care however he will lunge at other dogs while I walk him on the leash. If you have other dogs he will need extra time to warm up to them. After this period he will shower them with affection.

He sometimes can to tear up fabric, and socks if he is bored. (Carpet is fine) He is also crate trained and I keep him crated while at work. He doesn't have an issue with this.

Vader is a sweet boy and he can sit, stay, give paw, lay down, and drop it if you catch him with a sock!
