BROLINIf you`re looking for a young energetic and happy dog, meet Brolin! He enjoys playing fetch with the toys in the play yard and has shown some interest in playing with dogs around his size and energy level. He did respond nicely when called to. He`d make a nice running partner or maybe some hiking or beach walks. He`d do nicely in a good training class to continue his education. When he tried dock-diving, he was a superstar! Young Brolin weighs in at 67lbs.Here`s what Brolin`s foster has to say about him:`Brolin is a funny, charismatic, and an outgoing puppy (at heart) who loves to play, get pets, go for walks on the beach and is always up for an adventure with you. Brolin loves to cuddle and loves to get as many pets as possible. Any time I come home he gets so excited and so happy to see me, he comes right up to me and rolls over on his back to get more belly rubs while his tail is slapping the floor. In the morning time he loves to get as close as possible and snuggle up with you any chance he can get. He loves all toys that squeak and make noise. Brolin is very outgoing and playful. He has the biggest brown eyes that when you look into, can`t help your self but squeeze that little face of his and give him all the love you have. He listens very well and does great on leash walks. He is potty trained and will let me know when he must use the bathroom. He is well behaved in the house when I am gone at work. Once in the car he loves to stick his head out the window and smell every flower. He does well being trained. He would be an amazing dog for any family and anyone who has an active lifestyle. You will never be lonely when Brolin is with you`.

No accidents in the house, found some toys she liked, and did some zoomies in the yard. Then we were off to the park! She did well at the park adjacent to kids and people. She`s curious but navigated it all easily! No reactions to dogs, kept moving when I did. She`s such a love with a funny personality.`
